More quotes by Ricky Gervais
I see Atheists are fighting and killing each other again, over who doesn't believe in any God the most. Oh, no..wait.. that never happens.
Ricky Gervais
It's interesting that music in this country... we sort of sold something to America with The Beatles and they sold something back. And we've never been afraid to embrace American style rock 'n' roll and make it our own over here.
Ricky Gervais
When I direct my own scripts, it's much easier as it's been in my head for a year already... What I love about this is having an idea and seeing it come to fruition on screen. I would like to direct someone else's script one day, but I might not get round to it before I die - you can't legislate for being hit by a bus!
Ricky Gervais
Of all the disciplines involved in making anything - TV, film or anything I do - the writing is the most valuable commodity.
Ricky Gervais
I always chose all my friends on whether they were funny. What's a better way to pass the time than laughing or smiling?
Ricky Gervais
America champions the underdog. We champion the underdog until he's not the underdog anymore, and he annoys us.
Ricky Gervais
Pol Pot - he rounded up anybody he thought was intellectual and had them executed. And how he told someone was intellectual or not was whether they wore glasses. If they're that clever, take them off when they see him coming!
Ricky Gervais
Do this or you’ll burn in hell.
Ricky Gervais
It's the team that matters. Where would The Beatles be without Ringo. If John got Yoko to play drums the history of music would be completely different.
Ricky Gervais
Since there is absolutely no logical reason to assume there is an afterlife, I decided to make the life I have now as much fun as possible.
Ricky Gervais
I no longer needed a reason for my existence, just a reason to live. And imagination, free will, love, humor, fun, music, sports, beer, and pizza are all good enough reasons for living. But living an honest life - for that you need the truth.
Ricky Gervais
The terrible thing in England is if you interview a thousand people, five hundred of them will talk like they're going into a Guy Ritchie movie and the other five hundred will be Mr. Darcy. So we had to find cool, working class kids with no profile who could be John Travolta and James Dean and people like that.
Ricky Gervais
People see me, and they see the suit, and they go: you're not fooling anyone, they know I'm rock and roll through and through. But you know that old thing, live fast, die young? Not my way. Live fast, sure, live too bloody fast sometimes, but die young? Die old. That's the way- not orthodox, I don't live by the rules you know.
Ricky Gervais
I think the job of a comedian is to make people laugh, but also challenge them to laugh at things they didn't know they could until now.
Ricky Gervais
It annoys me that the burden of proof is on us. It should be You came up with the idea. Why do you believe it? I could tell you I've got superpowers. But I can't go up to people saying Prove I can't fly. They'd go: What do you mean 'Prove you can't fly'? Prove you can!
Ricky Gervais
When someone thanks God, I don't get offended.
Ricky Gervais
That's the amazing thing about life. You can just rub it out, like a blackboard, and start again.
Ricky Gervais
I've never done anything for the common consensus. I do things to please me. If you are happy with something yourself, you become bulletproof.
Ricky Gervais
Even if it's such a lowly art as TV, you've got to get stuff off your chest, because that's what makes something different and original, your particular take on stuff.
Ricky Gervais
There's a difference between a job and a career - if you're the boss you don't stop at six o'clock, you have to worry about everything all the time.
Ricky Gervais
