Answers
Answer:
The author William Douglas when at last get rid of his fear of water, he remembers the words said by Roosevelt that there is terror only in the fear of death. 'All we have to fear is fear itself' means we actually fear in our heart.
The experiences of terror was a handicap Douglas suffered from during his childhood. His conquering of it shows his determination, will power, and development of his personality.
He drew a larger meaning from this experience. “In death there is peace.” “There is terror only in the fear of death.” He had experienced both the sensation of dying and the terror that fear of it can produce. So, the will to live somehow grew in intensity. He felt released- free to walk the mountain paths, climb the peaks, and brush aside fear.
