More Ricky Gervais quote about:

“Famous people are above the law,”
-- Ricky Gervais

#Law #People #Above The Law
“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

#Sick #People #Vision
“Same sex marriage isn't gay privilege, it's equal rights. Privilege would be something like gay people not paying taxes. Like churches don't.”
-- Ricky Gervais

#Sex #Gay #Rights
“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

#Thinking #Creative #Soul
“Telling someone with depression to pull themselves together is about as useful as telling someone with cancer to just stop having cancer”
-- Ricky Gervais

“The world is bigger than all the parts. That's the important thing, and one thing can throw everything off kilter. And you must never let yourself off. You'll let yourself off by mistake. So you shouldn't do it consciously. You have to be above it all and just be very disciplined with it. Just be very disciplined with it.”
-- Ricky Gervais

#Mistake #Important #World
“I've never been insulted by hateful satanists for not believing in their devil. Only by loving Christians for not believing in their God.”
-- Ricky Gervais

#Christian #Believe #Devil
“Comedy and drama are different sides of the same coin. And the thing about comedy and drama is about likability. It's about character first. It's about story. And for me, it's about empathy, and I think the realer someone is, the further you can go either way with them.”
-- Ricky Gervais

#Drama #Character #Thinking
“Mondays are fine. It's your life that sucks”
-- 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

#Years #Office #Television

“Sometimes I'll be confident and go into a shop and say, "Hello, yeah, all right," and then the next day, if someone looks at me or talks to me, I just don't know what to do. If you're walking down the street with a baseball cap, you might be fine. But if you're in a pub and you see someone look at you, you think the worst thing in the world now is if they come over. It's a really weird feeling.”
-- Ricky Gervais

#Baseball #Thinking #Feelings

-- Ricky Gervais

“I've probably done the odd thing. I've probably done more than I would have done and some things you don't say no to. You don't say no to working with "The Simpsons"... the greatest comedy show on television. You mustn't. Even though going to my bad judgment, I remember saying that all I can do is make this show slightly worse.”
-- Ricky Gervais

#Odd Things #Done #Television

“We only do what we think is good and what we're happy with. I do that in stand-up, I even do it with my children's books. I don't do market research, I don't have focus groups, I don't care. I don't care if it fails, honestly. I'd rather have something that's completely mine fail than something succeed that I'm not proud of.”
-- Ricky Gervais

#Children #Book #Thinking

-- Ricky Gervais

“Next time someone tells me they believe in God, I'll say 'Oh which one? Zeus? Hades? Jupiter? Mars? Odin? Thor? Krishna? Vishnu? Ra?...' If they say 'Just God. I only believe in the one God,' I'll point out that they are nearly as atheistic as me. I don't believe in 2,870 gods, and they don't believe in 2,869.”
-- Ricky Gervais
