More quotes by Ricky Gervais
Know your limitations and be content with them. Too much ambition results in promotion to a job you can't do.
Ricky Gervais
Being honest is what counts. To make the ordinary extraordinary is so much better than starting with the extraordinary.
Ricky Gervais
I think, as a comedian, the funniest you can be is with people you know, and [whom] you've known for years, in a pub. That's as funny as you get, and so the aim [while stand-up] is to get that funny on stage with 5,000 strangers, to get that funny in a room where people shouldn't be listening but they are.
Ricky Gervais
Same-sex marriage is not a gay privilege, it's equal rights.
Ricky Gervais
I always knew I had to be 100 percent in charge, even when I was a middle manager. I used to say to my boss, Just give me enough rope and then fire me.
Ricky Gervais
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.
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
Mondays are fine. It's your life that sucks
Ricky Gervais
I like my baths really deep and hot. But washing everything only takes a few minutes. So I thought it would be a waste to just flush all that water away. So there was nothing else to do but take pictures of myself trying to look as horrendous as possible. Oh my, what have I started?
Ricky Gervais
We didn't evolve God made us. So I just want to explain to you exactly how that happened... Some of the things you'll hear do sound a little bit far-fetched. I admit that. Then I found out that the other name for The Bible is The Gospel, so it is all true. Luckily, the clue is in the title.
Ricky Gervais
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
Remember, no one can hurt your feelings without your permission
Ricky Gervais
I think what makes us human is those choices - whether to tell the truth or not.
Ricky Gervais
I don't do anything for the money.
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 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.
Ricky Gervais
When you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It's only painful and difficult for others. The same applies when you are stupid.
Ricky Gervais
Famous people are above the law.
Ricky Gervais
For any of you who don't know, the Golden Globes are just like the Oscars, but without all that esteem. The Golden Globes are to the Oscars what Kim Kardashian is to Kate Middleton. A bit louder, a bit trashier, a bit drunker, and more easily bought.
Ricky Gervais
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.
Ricky Gervais
