Adam Sandler returned to NYU Tisch School of the Arts, where he graduated from 34 years ago, to deliver a speech for the school's commencement ceremony.
The 55-year-old actor balanced his speech with heart and humor, saying, 'We just want to give our fellow humans an escape from this increasingly psychotic world we live in.
'The biggest reason we Tischies chose the arts is because we literally can't do anything else: What was I gonna do, become an investment banker? I can't even find my wallet three times a week.'

The Uncut Gems actor joked about the nature of the performing arts during his speech, telling attending parents they 'really messed up' and 'might be supporting these kids for a very long time.'
He added, 'They are not leaving the nest anytime soon. This is a tough business they chose, but there's still time to talk them out of it.'
The Brooklyn, New York native added that he tries to talk his daughters Sadie, 16, and Sunny, 13, 'out of showbiz and they know f***ing Adam Sandler.'
