Oops, I misquoted FDR:
So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief
that the only thing we have to fear is fear
itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified (I6)
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. I am
convinced that you will again give that support
to leadership in these critical days.
Not perfect in most cases but about as close to I5 as a lot of Jacobean plays
come.
