"[...] only thing we have to fear is fear itself - nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance."
The quote, which reads "...the only thing we have to fear is fear itself," was stated by the new president Franklin Delano Roosevelt in his inauguration speech in 1933. It was the Great Depression and the country was filled with fear; he was trying to encourage Americans and help them to be more confident that the economy would improve.
The actual quote is "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself...", and it was Franklin D. Roosevelt in his first inaugural address.

They do not have any fear in everything and therefore they have nothing to fear but fear itself.
First Inaugural Address March 4, 1933
FDR believed that fear could paralyze individuals and prevent them from taking action to address challenges. By emphasizing that "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself," he was trying to inspire confidence and resilience in the face of difficult circumstances, such as the Great Depression.
There is nothing to fear but fear itself. The fear of the unknown
Roosevelt said this in a speech to make the point that if fear takes over then the right thing isn't done. Not to allow fear to rule.
That is completely true. There is nothing to fear. That is completely false. Lot of things are worthy of fear and we should be thankful that we have the finely tuned genetic capability of doing so.
We have nothing to fear
He wanted to instill confidence in the American people, to make them believe that with his leadership they really had nothing to worry about. I doubt that he made any deep analysis of the aspects of fear. the belief that nothing bad could be done
