Orson Welles: We need to change the name. Herman Mankiewicz: What? The title? Orson Welles: No, no. It's a grand title, "American". I was thinking more the character name. Charles Foster Craig doesn't have the "knives-out" poetry I was looking for. Herman Mankiewicz: Okay. Orson Welles: I was thinking of Kane. Herman Mankiewicz: As in Abel? Orson Welles: K-A-N-E. One strong syllable, Kane. Herman Mankiewicz: Craig is one syllable. Orson Welles: Yes... But it's not a great syllable.
William Randolph Hearst: My battle with the world is almost over. Yours I'm afraid has just begun. Orson Welles: Kane would've taken the tickets.
