Quoting Two Presidents

The words of a great president, Franklin Delano Roosevelt:
the only thing we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance. ~ March 4, 1933

The words of a small, frightened little man who would have us all quaking in the same nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror that consumes his life:
we will face the terrorists in the streets of our own cities....If we leave, they will follow us....our children will face a region dominated by terrorist states and radical dictators armed with nuclear weapons. ~ George W. Bush, August 31, 2006
