Octavia Spencer's quotes

• I was not a Girl Scout, but I try to be very prepared. I triple-Spanx!
• [on 'Smashed'] To say we did it on a shoestring budget would be putting it mildly. We did it on a dental-floss budget.
• I was always a closet lover of acting. My mom was very practical. She never, ever restricted our dreams, always told us we could do or be anything. Then I said, 'Maybe I want to be an actor'. And she said, 'Maybe not that'.
• You can't rest on your laurels. Because if you go in there and stink up the room, they go, 'They gave that one an Oscar?'
• Meeting Oprah Winfrey, I cried like a baby. Meeting Steven Spielberg, I cried like a baby. Meeting Denzel Washington, I gushed like a crazy woman.
