Allegory, from the Greek ἀλληγορία (allegoría) "figuratively", is a literary figure or artistic theme, which aims to represent an idea using human forms, animals, and / or everyday objects.

The allegory aims to give an image to what has no image, so that it can be better understood by the generality. Drawing the abstract, making "visible" what is only conceptual, obeys a didactic intention. Thus, a blind woman with a scale is an allegory of justice, and a skeleton with a scythe is an allegory of death.

Well, you didnt give much information to answer off of, but he was probably right to remain calm, because the more calm you are in a situation like that, the better capable you are to think of the correct way to go about working to fix your problem.
