A biography for Kevin Nealonhasn’t been written yet.
“When I would see my friends with their kids, I was envious that you can use children to get out of just about anything. If you don't feel like going to a dinner party, you could say, 'My kid's sick. I can't make it.' Who's gonna argue with you?”
“I loved working on 'Happy Gilmore' because I love to travel to new places and we got to go to British Columbia. Any Adam Sandler film is fun to work on because it is a reunion of the boys club of guys that have worked together in the past.”
“I do have a place in my heart for animal shelters because the job they have is impossible - so many animals that need to euthanized because don't have homes for them.”
“When I was very young, I didn't really write my own material. I just memorized other peoples' jokes. Established comics, like Stanley Myron Handelman and people like that. And then, for every comic, you develop your own style after a while.”
“When you discover that you are going to have a child, it stirs up memories of your own childhood.”
“I don't feel the pressure and stress of having to be a comic in a club every night. I accomplished a lot of things; I did lot of things, and I don't feel like I'm missing out when I am home with my son.”
“A special validates you as a stand-up by documenting your material.”
“I met Adam Sandler through 'Saturday Night Live,' and we became friends.”
“I tend to listen to Sirius XM Radio.”
“I became a vegetarian after I became aware of factory farming and slaughterhouses and the torture and inhumane handling of all these animals.”
“It's kind of fun when you're playing characters that aren't quite on the up and up and people still like you.”
“I look back at 'Saturday Night Live' and I think, some people didn't like me doing 'Weekend Update.' Who cares? A lot of people did. When you're reaching that many people, you're not going to have everybody like you.”
“I'm probably more of a stand-up comedian than an actor.”
“I think I definitely would have ended up in some kind of show business. I was very interested in music when I was younger. This was back when Crosby, Stills and Nash were around.”
“A whole generation of people that didn't know me from 'SNL' recognize me from 'Weeds' now. People recognize me once in a while and appreciate the work. It gets a little embarrassing but it's good. If you work as an accountant, you don't have people coming up to you in the streets saying, 'Hey, great job on tax statements!'”
“I play a lot of sports. I'm not real good at any of them. I'm above adequate.”
“I learned how to draw from being bored in school. I would doodle on the margins of my paper.”
“Curb Your Enthusiasm, is not so much about Hollywood. It's more about Larry's weaknesses.”
“You see things through a different lens when you have a child.”
“I am very romantic. In fact, I just renewed my vows... although it was with another woman.”
