“We have nothing to fear but fear itself. Apart from pain. And maybe humiliation & obviously death”

“The only thing we have to fear is fear itself” is a famous line from the first inauguration of U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, on March 4, 1933.
 
Red Dwarf is a British science fiction comedy franchise. In Red Dwarf: Series X, the episode “The Beginning” that originally aired on November 8, 2012, the character Arnold Rimmer (played by Chris Barrie) said:
   
“We have nothing to fear but fear itself. Apart from pain. And maybe humiliation and obviously death. And failure. But apart from fear, pain and humiliation, failure and the unknown and death we have nothing to fear but fear itself. Who’s with me?”
   
           
Wikipedia: First inauguration of Franklin D. Roosevelt

This was the 37th inauguration, and marked the commencement of the first term of Franklin D. Roosevelt as president and John Nance Garner as vice president.

Inaugural speech
Roosevelt proceeded to deliver his 1,883-word, 20 minute-long inaugural address, best known for his famously pointed reference to “fear itself” (paraphrasing Thoreau)[3] in one of its first lines (emphasis added):
 
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 of vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves which is essential to victory. And I am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days.
