You sound so beautiful.’ And I hang up the phone and I looked at Alan and said, ‘I just got this really strange feeling.’ And he said, ‘I did, too.’ And it turned out that was the last time I ever spoke to Howard.”– Paige O’Hara, the voice of Belle in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast Quote via d23.com; photo via heyuguys.com -- source link
