What I love to do requires portraying different characters, and you have to separate your life from the role.
I have 800 books of just Samuel Beckett's work, tons of his correspondence, personal letters that he wrote. I have copies of plays he used when he directed, so all of his handwritten notes are in the corners of the page.
It sounds gross to say that I like myself more. But not everyone likes themselves that much. Especially in the comedy world.
