A Quote by Octavia Spencer

I'm probably the most militant person you'll ever meet and I speak my mind without provocation sometimes. — © Octavia Spencer
I'm probably the most militant person you'll ever meet and I speak my mind without provocation sometimes.
The only person I ever wanted to meet was Muhammad Ali. And of all the people I've ever met, he's the one who most impressed me. It's tough to listen to him. You gotta have patience. But you see how strong his mind is. Even now, he's one of the most intelligent people on the planet.
It's better to be quotable than honest, I don't speak, I quote. I am a fraud. I have cobbled together my personality from hundreds of little bits. I am simultaneously the most genuine and the most artificial person you will ever meet.
I'm just a regular person. I treat every person the same. I like to think that I'm respectful. I'm honest with everybody. Sometimes it gets me in trouble, sometimes it doesn't, but I'll always speak my mind.
Sometimes we meet people and are so symbiotic with them, it's as if we are one person, with one mind, one destiny
I'm very militant with my state of mind. I'm very task at hand and I don't let any interference ever enter my mind.
I'm the most competitive person you'll ever meet.
I'm the angriest and most empathetic person you'll ever meet.
The person I respect most, in terms of historical figures, is probably Nelson Mandela. I just think that his tolerance in the face of extreme provocation is something every single person on the planet could learn from.
A book is the only place in which you can examine a fragile thought without breaking it, or explore an explosive idea without fear it will go off in your face. It is one of the few havens remaining where a man's mind can get both provocation and privacy.
I am the most competitive person you will ever meet.
There are writers you admire, for the skill or the art, for the inventiveness or for the professionalism of a career well spent. And there are writers-sometimes the same ones, sometimes not-to whom you are powerfully attracted, for reasons that may or may not have to do with literary values. They speak to you, or speak for you, sometimes with a voice that could almost be your own. Often there is one writer in particular who awakens you, who is the teacher they say you will meet when you are ready for the lesson.
I speak to the paper, as I speak to the first person I meet.
I think people like that I speak my mind, but I think I can speak my mind in a better way sometimes and choose my words a little bit more wisely.
Mind precedes all phenomena, mind matters most, everything is mind-made. If with an impure mind, you speak or act, then suffering follows you as the cartwheel follows the foot of the draft animal. If with a pure mind, you speak or act, then happiness follows you as a shadow that never departs
Table talk, to be perfect, should be sincere without bigotry, differing without discord, sometimes grave, always agreeable, touching on deep points, dwelling most on seasonable ones, and letting everybody speak and be heard.
They say don't meet your heroes, but when it comes to Bowie, he truly is the most brilliant person I've ever met.
