	:Near as I can figure, [http://www.kitsapsun.com/news/2007/jun/29/movies-film-legend-orson-welles-last-role-was-in/ this is the same article] (it was AP, so it figures it would appear in different sources). The thing is, it doesn't contain that quote. It's possible the Kitsap Sun shortened the article, but Googling "Orson Welles" and "horrible things to each other" just results in a bunch of citation-less parroting. I'm beginning to suspect the quote isn't real at all, despite how much I want it to be. '''Edit:''' One of the Google-results claims that the quote came from "his biographer, Barbara Leaming."

	::Closest I can find is this quote, from page 522, "I played the voice of a toy. Some terrible robot toys from Japan that changed from one thing to another. The Japanese have funded a full-length animated cartoon about the doings of these toys, which is all bad outer-space stuff. I play a planet. I menace somebody called Somethign-or-other. Then I'm destroyed. My plan to destroy Whoever-it-is is thwarted and I tear myself apart on the screen." --[[User:Jimsorenson\|Jimsorenson]] 16:38, 17 July 2009 (EDT)		::Closest I can find is this quote, from page 522, "I played the voice of a toy.
