In clear, concise, and noble language, Allen overturns the conventional view of reality—that human beings are nothing more than creatures of circumstance and environment. Instead, he reminds us, everything around us, good and bad, arises from the disposition of our hearts and minds. “The visible is sustained by the invisible,” he writes, reminding us of the central fact of our existence: that what we think and believe forms the core of our habits, character, and even fate.
