My physique is down to 20 years of eating cheese.

Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right.

I think comedy has to be an intellectual pursuit. It comes down to logic and analysis. As soon as it becomes emotional, it's not comedy anymore.
Ricky Gervais
Image
I like every part [of the film process ] except the business and admin stuff. The initial idea. Writing. Re-writing. Casting. Directing, Editing. If I had to chose I'd say writing, followed by putting music on the picture. That is magical.

There are good and bad critics like good or bad artists. A good critic says why they didn't like it. A bad critic gives it away that they don't like you as a person. I quite like that as well, because it means that I've won.

I think sometimes you get given a good pile of goodwill, and it's whether you use it up in the first six months or spread it out over a career.

When someone thanks God, I don't get offended.

It will be great to play a short, fat sweaty loser for a change.

People confuse the subject of the joke with the target of the joke, and they're very rarely the same.
Ricky Gervais
Image
Never fear the truth. No bad can come of discussing a true subject. No bad at all.

If you walked around like David Bowie in 1973 in Reading, you'd get beaten up. The 1970s in a small town was more like the 1950s.. and that's the truth. The backdrop was probably Victorian.

I see myself much more as a writer/director or at least an aspiring writer/director - not necessarily in film.

The next time someone is critical of you, just take a moment to consider their life. Then smile to yourself.

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.

The most important thing in comedy - apart from empathy, which I think is important even if disguised - is surprise. I like surprising people with the fact that something's even a joke at all.

Suggesting I hate people with religion because I hate religion is like suggesting I hate people with cancer because I hate cancer.

America champions the underdog. We champion the underdog until he's not the underdog anymore, and he annoys us.

Trust, encouragement, reward, loyalty... satisfaction. That's what I'm... you know. Trust people and they'll be true to you. Treat them greatly, and they will show themselves to be great.
