I remember one review of The Office Christmas Special that compared it unfavourably to Dickens. What? You're saying I'm not as good as the greatest storyteller ever. Boo! Boo! I think I can live with that.

More quotes by 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
My ideal meal would probably be the cheesiest pasta or pizza, followed by something creamy and chocolaty. I mean, just the worst things, really.
Ricky Gervais
Thank you God for making me an atheist.
Ricky Gervais
We shouldn't even need the word 'atheism'. If people didn't invent ridiculous imaginary gods, rational people wouldn't have to deny them.
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
I think the best advice I'd say to any actor when you do comedy is play it straight.
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'm not from around these parts. I'm from a little place called England: we used to run the world before you.
Ricky Gervais
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but if you believe in god, you're wrong.
Ricky Gervais
I no longer needed a reason for my existence, just a reason to live. And imagination, free will, love, humor, fun, music, sports, beer, and pizza are all good enough reasons for living. But living an honest life - for that you need the truth.
Ricky Gervais
When you get back into the editing suite in the cold light of day, the written stuff is better.
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
Where there's a will - there's a relative!
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
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
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
Try something. And never be afraid to fail. That failure is useful too. It's just another building block.
Ricky Gervais
Celebrities, make it harder for hackers to get nude pics of you from your computer by not putting nude pics of yourself on the computer.
Ricky Gervais
Daniel Day-Lewis would play me as a baby. He can do anything. Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt are fighting out for me now. And Meryl Streep will play me after the sex change. I haven't told you about that, have I?
Ricky Gervais
Unlike religious people, I look at all religions equally.
