Ricky Gervais quotes about
party drinking night
It's going to be a night of partying and heavy drinking. Or as Charlie Sheen calls it: Breakfast.
people target subjects
People confuse the subject of the joke with the target of the joke, and they're very rarely the same.
judging democracy popularity
Popularity and democracy aren't a judge, they're just stats.
real men animal
Take a picture not a trophy This is how real men shoot animals
people entrepreneur negative
Be happy. It really annoys negative people.
fun life-and-love laughing
Enjoy life. Have fun. Be kind. Have worth. Have friends. Be honest. Laugh. Die with dignity. Make the most of it. It's all we've got.
thinking creative soul
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.
thinking years people
I think, as a comedian, the funniest you can be is with people you know, and [whom] you've known for years, in a pub. That's as funny as you get, and so the aim [while stand-up] is to get that funny on stage with 5,000 strangers, to get that funny in a room where people shouldn't be listening but they are.
mean offended
Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right.
fun having-fun criticise
It's better to create something that others criticise than to create nothing and criticise others. Go create, have fun!!
wall thinking eggs
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.
texture moral reason
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.
real rubbish facts
Your God is the best God. In fact, he's the only God. All other Gods are ridiculous, made up rubbish. Not yours though. Yours is real.
monday fine
Mondays are fine. It's your life that sucks
