In his Netflix Emmys For Your Consideration conversation with Jerry Seinfeld, Letterman expressed regret with not leaving his Late Show earlier. “When you’re in show business, it’s so self-consuming and so egomaniacal that you only look at a very small focus, which is yourself,” Letterman said. “If you have the ability and the energy to do that, you should do it. But don’t do it as long as I did. I did it too long. I should have left 10 years ago, because then I could have taken some of that energy and focus and applied it to actually doing something good for humans.”
