More quotes by Ricky Gervais
I think the best advice I'd say to any actor when you do comedy is play it straight.
Ricky Gervais
The only reason I work out is so I can eat more cheese.
Ricky Gervais
Mondays are fine. It's your life that sucks
Ricky Gervais
Where there's a will - there's a relative!
Ricky Gervais
You are the result of billions of years of evolution. You will only live for a few years and will never exist again. Absolutely beautiful
Ricky Gervais
You won't burn in hell. But be nice anyway.
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 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
When someone thanks God, I don't get offended.
Ricky Gervais
I fought a bear once. But it started crying, so I let it off.
Ricky Gervais
Try something. And never be afraid to fail. That failure is useful too. It's just another building block.
Ricky Gervais
Most people sitting at home aren't cool, successful, witty Hollywood stars, but they all worry about what people think of them when they faux pas.
Ricky Gervais
The world is not entirely comic and it's not entirely dramatic. You have a laugh and then someone finds a lump and you deal with that. Because that is what life is like.
Ricky Gervais
It will be great to play a short, fat sweaty loser for a change.
Ricky Gervais
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.
Ricky Gervais
If you can't joke about the most horrendous things in the world, what's the point of jokes? What's the point in having humor? Humor is to get us over terrible things.
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
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've got three friends that you'd call famous, but I'm sure after 20 years, most of my friends will be famous or work in television, because that's the nature of what your work is. When I was working in an office, most of my friends worked in offices.
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.
