The human brain needs only to become fully aware of its powers to conquer even the elements. The human brain is powerful and controls all of a person's body. It easily compared to the central processing unit in a computer; all information is received, transferred, and sent back out. Without it nothing would work. Leiningen, a plantation farmer, was persistent and followed this motto to help him overcome many elements, or "acts of God." Leiningen …showed first 75 words of 785 total…

…showed last 75 words of 785 total…you I would return." Everyone knew he would be alright. The human brain needs only to become fully aware of its powers to conquer even the elements. This motto has proved true for Leiningen for he has met and defeated drought, flood, plague, ants, and all other "acts of God." If a person is convinced about something they believe in others will follow that belief. This is displayed throughout the story Leiningen Versus the Ants.
