"President David O. McKay once said that “the greatest battles of life are fought out daily in the silent chambers of the soul. ” My young friends, I am a veteran of many such “soul-battles” in my own life. I have witnessed them in the lives of others. And I am here today to admonish you to learn now to dig your foxholes! But the “foxholes” to which I refer are not literal, they are not holes in the ground. Neither are they dug with a crude implement, like an “entrenching tool.” Your foxholes are figurative, they are in heart and mind. They are the product of devotion and courage. They are foxholes of faith. They are foxholes of determination. They are foxholes of purpose. They are foxholes of decision. They are foxholes in your very soul!"
