Saying : The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

Orginal text : So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance. In every dark hour of our national life, a leadership of frankness and vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves which is essential to victory.

Additional information : Franklin D. Roosevelt is the 32nd President of the United States. He delivered this line during his first inaugural address on March 4, 1933, at the height of the Great Depression.
