Happy Birthday Adam Sandler!

Chemistry can be a good and bad thing. Chemistry is good when you make love with it. Chemistry is bad when you make crack with it.

Sir one more comment like that and I will strangle you with my microphone wire!

My name is Adam Sandler. I'm not particularly talented. I'm not particularly good-looking. And yet I'm a multi-millionaire.

I think the reason I don't read is because, when I'm reading, I feel like I'm missing out on something else. You know, What are my friends doing? Where's my girlfriend?

I was just a young guy who was excited to become a comedian and an actor and I just wanted to get to do what I got to do.

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.

Doing Saturday Night Live definitely affects my relationship with my girlfriend and with my family, because you feel so much pressure to do well that night. But I think everyone's grown to accept that and so they give me my space at the show.

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.

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

I shouldn't be near Vegas and have money in my pocket.

Sixth grade was a big time, in my childhood, of hoops and friendship, and coming up with funny things.

Now that I'm a parent, I understand why my father was in a bad mood a lot.

With the amount of money I have, it's difficult raising children the way I was raised.

In high school I wanted to be a rock star and was in a lot of bands.

My sisters are stronger and my brother's bigger than me.

How do I speak Spanish? Not too well.

I'll continue to make the typical Adam Sandler comedies.

It's nice when little teams win.

When I take my kid to school, all the parents stop and stare.

I'm 31 now. I think I'm beginning to understand what life is, what romance is, and what a relationship means.

I know I want to always do the best I can.

When you're around the kids, you feel like you act the most grown up just because you're supposed to lead. 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.

To be honest with you, when I got into this I never thought about reviews. I never thought about what people would say about me. I was just a young guy who was excited to become a comedian and an actor and I just wanted to get to do what I got to do.

I had my moments of being humiliated, and then I had moments of doing something humiliating. I'm glad I lived out both roles.

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.
