Summary

This quote suggests that the conservative movement has lost its way and is ironically straying from its core principles. It likens the movement to a prominent ship commanded by a confident captain, symbolizing its strength and achievement. However, it highlights a concern that the movement is drifting towards embracing "big government republicanism," which implies a departure from the limited government and individual freedom that conservatives traditionally champion. The quote ultimately conveys the idea that the movement needs to course-correct in order to stay true to its fundamental values.

The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself, with desire for what its monstrous laws have made monstrous and unlawful. It has been said that the great events of the world take place in the brain. It is in the brain, and the brain only, that the great sins of the world take place also.
