If you're surrounded by idiots, you're the unpopular one and the odd one out because idiots don't like smart asses.
Ricky Gervais
Image
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!

Image
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but if you believe in god, you're wrong.
Ricky Gervais
Image
It's a privilege to be in such a great category of people and... I don't believe in God, so I'd like to thank dogs. Dogs have given me everything.
Ricky Gervais
Image
Thank you God for making me an atheist.
Ricky Gervais
Image
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
Image
I've never regretted saying no to anything, or finishing something. When I'm in the middle of doing something I love, I can have a better idea, and I'll go, Oh God, I can't finish this. Maybe I've got some sort of disorder.

I don't think humans are meant to be looked at when we're buying pants.
Ricky Gervais
Image
You see reality TV and it's not reality TV. It's contrived and everything is plotted and scripted nearly. Documentaries are the same and just as bad.
Ricky Gervais
Image
When you get back into the editing suite in the cold light of day, the written stuff is better.
Ricky Gervais
Image
I never understood redemption when I was young. Even before I was an atheist, I always thought with the prodigal son, well, why's he getting the special treatment?
Ricky Gervais
Image
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
Image
I feel sorry for people in power. I feel sorry for the Queen, in a way, that she hasn't had a normal life. It'd difficult for me to hate anyone. Immediately someone's unpopular, I feel sorry for them.
Ricky Gervais
Image
The next time someone is critical of you, just take a moment to consider their life. Then smile to yourself.
Ricky Gervais
Image
There's no difference between fame and infamy now. There's a new school of professional famous people that don't do anything. They don't create anything.
Ricky Gervais
Image
I'm not from around these parts. I'm from a little place called England: we used to run the world before you.

Hotel bars are pretty good. No one bothers me there. Restaurants are safe. People are quite respectful when you're eating. But what I never do now is go to a busy bar on the weekend, or after 8 o'clock at night. That's the danger zone. Also being trapped. Never go on the Metro, or a bus.

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.

My favourite shows of the year are House of Cards, the Scandinavian versions of The Killing and The Bridge, and my guilty pleasure is everything MMA. Ultimate Fighter is amazing.
