More quotes by 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
Opinions don't affect facts. But facts should affect opinions, and do, if you're rational
Ricky Gervais
Someone asked me what three things I would save if my house was on fire. I said my cat, my salamander and one of the twins.
Ricky Gervais
I'm not from around these parts. I'm from a little place called England: we used to run the world before you.
Ricky Gervais
The truth doesn't hurt. Whatever it is, it doesn't hurt. It's better to know the truth.
Ricky Gervais

Ricky Gervais
I get so sick of people asking: What's your demographic? Or: Oh we've got to aim this at... No, you have to aim it at you. You do the thing you would love... make the thing you would love and be proud of. There's enough people in the world that, if you do that and do it well as a single vision, they'll go: That's my favourite thing ever!
Ricky Gervais
It's better to create something that others criticise than to create nothing and criticise others. Go create, have fun!!
Ricky Gervais

Ricky Gervais
Famous people are above the law.
Ricky Gervais
Dear Religion, This week I safely dropped a man from space while you shot a child in the head for wanting to go to school. Yours, Science.
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
You can drive 1,000 miles across America and find yourself, whereas if you drive a few miles from Slough you're in London anyway, or you hit Wales and you're in another country! Also, wherever you are in England it's still raining.
Ricky Gervais
Piracy doesn't kill music, boy bands do.
Ricky Gervais
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
The next time someone is critical of you, just take a moment to consider their life. Then smile to yourself.
Ricky Gervais
Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right.
Ricky Gervais
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.
