On March 4, 1933, Franklin Delano Roosevelt delivered the memorable phrase “The only thing we have to fear…is fear itself” in his first inaugural address. Allstate Insurance invokes FDR’s famous words to remind Americans that through the decades we have overcome adversity and we have continued to prosper.
