I still get very scared when I step in front of a live audience.
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.
I'll continue to make the typical Adam Sandler comedies.
I wanted to make sure that I did one movie in my career that mothers hug me for.
With the amount of money I have, it's difficult raising children the way I was raised.
On this lovely, lovely Hanukkah, drink your gin and tonica.
Sitting in a room being forced to listen to 'The Chanukah Song' over and over." [on his idea of Hell]
This character feels so much like my brother. He has two children. He has a wife. He works with me. He chooses to stay in New Hampshire because he wants his kids to grow up in the school they started with. He doesn't want them to lose friends. He is his family's hero.
In high school I wanted to be a rock star and was in a lot of bands.
I read to my kid, but I can't stand reading.
I've always wanted to do a family movie.
I don't like being out in public too much. I don't like going to bars. I don't like doing celebrity stuff.
The problem with me, as far as getting married and having a family, is that my comedy is so important to me. So I don't know if I'll ever be as good a dad as my dad.
When I take my kid to school, all the parents stop and stare.
Comedy, such a lovely lady, she'll pick you up, you your feeling blue.
I don't know what the hell I'm doing; I like what I've been doing. I believe in what I've done in the past; I hope my kid enjoys the movies I've made and enjoys some of the movies in the future.
I still like some of the stuff, skateboarding. Just stupid things.
When you're shooting a movie you are away from home most of the time. It's an amazing thing that we get to do what we get to do, but you definitely are away from the family more than you'd like to be.
I definitely connected to the fact that life gets out of control and you end up doing things and wishing you were doing other things instead.
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.
My name is Adam Sandler. I'm not particularly talented. I'm not particularly good-looking. And yet I'm a multi-millionaire.
I've always had lots of friends and my house was the house they all hung out at.
I mean, I look at my dad. He was twenty when he started having a family, and he was always the coolest dad. He did everything for his kids, and he never made us feel like he was pressured. I know that it must be a great feeling to be a guy like that.
The idea of my kids being spoiled, I go to sleep thinking about it. I wake up thinking about. I'm trying to do the right thing. With the amount of money I have, it's difficult to raise children the way I was raised. But I took away the west and north wing of the house for those guys. So, they're not allowed in there.
My hobbies are run-on sentences.
