Quote

I say things, like every other parent, that reminds you of your own parents. One thing I do know about being a parent, you understand why your father was in a bad mood a lot.

I wasn't a kid growing up thinking, 'One day I'll get an Oscar and make a speech.' That wasn't on my mind.
Adam Sandler

Comedy, such a lovely lady, she'll pick you up, you your feeling blue.

Well, we're living in a material world, and I'm a material girl... or boy.

Image
I choose to ignore hell in my life. When I was a little kid I asked my Dad Am I going to go to hell? because I'd heard about hell. And he said, Nothing you're gonna do will get you into hell. And so I got to ignore it.

I don't know who I touch and who I don't. I work hard trying to make people laugh. I try to do the kind of stuff that made me laugh growing up. I don't have any secrets. I don't know the reasons I've been so well received.

It's nice when little teams win.

I don't laugh at me. I used to. I used to get the giggles when I'd see myself. But now, I see myself onscreen, and I sure don't laugh.

I guess I was maybe in little league baseball as far as I wanted to be good at that. But school, I certainly wasn't the best at that. But comedy thing and making movies and stuff, I love it so much that I do get driven to push myself as hard as I can.

I wish I was a better athlete. That would have been a little cooler, being a great boxer and walking into a room and going: I can knock everybody out! That's a good feeling.

I never had a speech from my father 'this is what you must do or shouldn't do' but I just learned to be led by example. My father wasn't perfect.
Adam Sandler
Image
My father wasn't perfect. He had a temper. I took some of that. He would snap, but the older he got, he started calming down. He learned about life, but the thing that he taught my whole family was that family was the most important thing and, no matter what, if a family member needs you, you go and help them out you get there.

When I'm around the kids I feel like I act the most grown-up just because you're supposed to. And I say things, like every other day, that remind me of my own parents.
Adam Sandler
Image
I still like doing stand-up now, but it's not the same. It used to be that I was out there with five other comedians. Now I usually just do it alone.
Adam Sandler
Image
I'm not looking to get away from anything. I like what I've done. I like what I get to do and I enjoy working with my friends. I loved those movies, but this is incredible.

I was raised by a mother who told me I was great every day of my life.

I don't want my kid to hear any of the albums that I've made.

When I do stand-up shows at colleges, girls will talk to me after the show, and that always feels good. I like talking to them.

When I was a kid you always heard about the Israeli army and you always heard about this tiny little country and how everyone around them wants them gone, and every time somebody comes after them they take care of business. And so as a Jewish kid you were proud of that.

My kids don't have a trust fund, they have a debt fund. And when I die, they're $4 million in the hole.

I don't know what drives me to succeed. I know I want to always do the best I can.I guess I was maybe in little league baseball as far as I wanted to be good at that. But school, I certainly wasn't the best at that.
