More quotes by Ricky Gervais
You should bring something into the world that wasn't in the world before. It doesn't matter what that is. It doesn't matter if it's a table or a film or gardening-everyone should create. You should do something, then sit back and say 'I did that.'
Ricky Gervais
Try something. And never be afraid to fail. That failure is useful too. It's just another building block.
Ricky Gervais
Animals are not here for us to do as we please with. We are not their superiors, we are their equals. We are their family. Be kind to them.
Ricky Gervais
Suggesting I hate people with religion because I hate religion is like suggesting I hate people with cancer because I hate cancer.
Ricky Gervais
I'm a failed pop star. I always sneak a song into everything I do.
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
Famous people are above the law.
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
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
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
I feel that a lot of British comedy is often too bombastic, too obvious, dressing up and shouting and pulling funny faces.
Ricky Gervais
I have to be excited, I have to have an adrenaline rush about doing something, or it bores me, I feel trapped.
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
Never fear the truth. No bad can come of discussing a true subject. No bad at all.
Ricky Gervais
Same-sex marriage is not a gay privilege, it's equal rights.
Ricky Gervais
I know how much embarrassment hurts, and I love it as a theme because you can keep digging a hole. It's just an endless well, embarrassment.
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
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
I think Hollywood's gotten more reactionary and conservative over the years, because there's no longer art in Hollywood. Art suffers in Hollywood.
Ricky Gervais
Remember, no one can hurt your feelings without your permission
