IIRC, Yamamoto is not actually known to have made the "sleeping giant" quote attributed to him, rather it was a fiction created by the writers of the film "Tora! Tora! Tora!".

Yep. Nothing prior to the making of that movie includes that very juicy quote. Producer put it in to give the US audience a tiny bit of an upbeat ending.
