More quotes by Ricky Gervais
I've always dabbled. I've always nearly written a book, I've always tried painting, I've always tried to make something out of ideas, really. It was never a plan. I never thought, Right. First I'll get famous, and then I'll do a book.
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
If there is a God, why did he make me an atheist?
Ricky Gervais
You see reality TV and it's not reality TV. It's contrived and everything is plotted and scripted nearly. Documentaries are the same and just as bad.
Ricky Gervais
Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right. Some people are offended by mixed marriage, gay people, atheism. So what? F*** 'em.
Ricky Gervais
Body language is more powerful than words.
Ricky Gervais
Whether you understand they evolved over billions of years or believe that a God made them all one afternoon, please be kind to animals.
Ricky Gervais
Same-sex marriage is not a gay privilege, it's equal rights.
Ricky Gervais
The terrible thing in England is if you interview a thousand people, five hundred of them will talk like they're going into a Guy Ritchie movie and the other five hundred will be Mr. Darcy. So we had to find cool, working class kids with no profile who could be John Travolta and James Dean and people like that.
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
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!
Ricky Gervais
I've never worked out what the moral of Humpty Dumpty is. I can only think of: Don't sit on a wall, if you're an egg.
Ricky Gervais
No one wants to see cool people doing brilliantly. I want to see the struggle. That's the fun bit.
Ricky Gervais
Americans are brought up to believe they can grow up to be the president of the United States. Brits are told, It won't happen to you.
Ricky Gervais
My favourite shows of the year are House of Cards, the Scandinavian versions of The Killing and The Bridge, and my guilty pleasure is everything MMA. Ultimate Fighter is amazing.
Ricky Gervais
There are good and bad critics like good or bad artists. A good critic says why they didn't like it. A bad critic gives it away that they don't like you as a person. I quite like that as well, because it means that I've won.
Ricky Gervais
The next time someone is critical of you, just take a moment to consider their life. Then smile to yourself.
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
[As a kid] I did enjoy making people laugh but I was also attracted to funny people. I'm [still] quite happy to not be the one trying to make other people laugh. I'm happy laughing at someone else. I enjoy laughing and I'll happily be the one just laughing all night if you can make me laugh.
Ricky Gervais
My physique is down to 20 years of eating cheese.
