Growing up, the most important thing, after taking care of your family and getting a decent job of work, was having a laugh. That was the point to life.
Ricky Gervais

We do that because what we found is that in the early days of The Office, we went in with it sort of 80 percent scripted and we did some things and then we improv'd and we did - you know, and it gets a laugh on the floor because it's the first time they've heard it.

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
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
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but if you believe in god, you're wrong.
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
Since there is absolutely no logical reason to assume there is an afterlife, I decided to make the life I have now as much fun as possible.
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.
Ricky Gervais
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.
