The truth doesn't hurt. Whatever it is, it doesn't hurt. It's better to know the truth.

I think doing something creative is the most important thing to me, and I think it's probably just good for the soul for anyone, whatever it is. You don't have to be a film director - you can do gardening or something - but I think everyone needs to create something.

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?

It breaks your heart when you throw something away, but it's what left that counts. It's like worrying about the bits of rock you have knocked off in order to make a beautiful statue. You've wasted half the rock, yeah, but it's the Venus di Milo!

Our challenge with The Office and Extras was to get it completely scripted but to find a cast that could make it look like they were saying it for the first time.

Spirituality really lost its way when it became a stick to beat people with: ‘Do this or you’ll burn in hell.
Ricky Gervais
Image
I want to get all the nations of the world together, it doesn't matter what colour or creed, and I want to sit them down and say: Guys, The Office is still available on DVD.

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.

Know your limitations and be content with them. Too much ambition results in promotion to a job you can't do.

Famous people are above the law.

I think what makes us human is those choices - whether to tell the truth or not.

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.

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.
