More quotes by Ricky Gervais
I'm quite squeamish, really. I'm philistine and unsophisticated - not because of my great discerning palate but other reasons. Some are moral grounds, some texture.
Ricky Gervais
You want to see the people you've sort of come to know and love, or love to hate, you want to see them develop in some way. And I hope people get sort of caught up in that arc.
Ricky Gervais
No one wants to see cool people doing brilliantly. I want to see the struggle. That's the fun bit.
Ricky Gervais
You won't burn in hell. But be nice anyway.
Ricky Gervais
I don't think humans are meant to be looked at when we're buying pants.
Ricky Gervais
I went to university with no money. I can't understand a society that wouldn't give a poor person the same opportunity as a rich person.
Ricky Gervais
Your God is the best God. In fact, he's the only God. All other Gods are ridiculous, made up rubbish. Not yours though. Yours is real.
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
Where there's a will - there's a relative!
Ricky Gervais
Most people sitting at home aren't cool, successful, witty Hollywood stars, but they all worry about what people think of them when they faux pas.
Ricky Gervais
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.
Ricky Gervais
Fact is stranger than fiction. You see people walking down the street that would never be allowed on television. You have to tone it down.
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
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
I don't see myself as part of an acting fraternity or a comedy fraternity.
Ricky Gervais
If you can't joke about the most horrendous things in the world, what's the point of jokes? What's the point in having humor? Humor is to get us over terrible things.
Ricky Gervais
I'd like to thank God for making me an atheist.
Ricky Gervais
People think The Office was improvised, but it's all on the page. We do that because what we found is that in the early days of The Office, we went in with it sort of 80 percent scripted and we did some things and then we improv'd and we did - you know, and it gets a laugh on the floor because it's the first time they've heard it.
Ricky Gervais
I think what makes us human is those choices - whether to tell the truth or not.
Ricky Gervais
Same sex marriage isn't gay privilege, it's equal rights. Privilege would be something like gay people not paying taxes. Like churches don't.
Ricky Gervais
