Being free, the will can put its last end in several things

By the fact that it places its last end in one thing, the will does not lose its freedom. But before it placed its last end in that thing, it could place it in something else...

Objection 3. Further, by the fact that it places its last end in one thing, the will does not lose its freedom. But before it placed its last end in that thing, e.g. pleasure, it could place it in something else, e.g. riches. Therefore even after having placed his last end in pleasure, a man can at the same time place his last end in riches. Therefore it is possible for one man's will to be directed at the same time to several things, as last ends.
