to respond to a few comments. "If I were he" is grammatically correct as the verb in the sentence, "to be" takes the nominative case. Him is more common and acceptable usage. To call a person pompous because he is smart reveals the jealousy and ignorance of the speaker.

POMPOUS?! How idiotic! So... a person who knows totally what he's doing and has proved it again and again.... is 'pompous'. What a 'pompous' thing to say, only demonstrating you don't have a clue what's going on here. Have you seen the show?
-
@MondoMiami maybe he is a bit pompous but hell, if anyone has a right to be smug/ satisfied then I think he does!
-
They put all of them in the show
-
no, actually, "him" is the object pronoun and "he" is the subject pronoun. it is correct to say "if you were him"
-
If you were he... He, not him.
-
were these one act plays ever published? if so-then where can I find them?
-
Company is truly one of his masterpieces. Well done! He greatly deserved the Lifetime Achievement award at the Tony's. It's a shame he wasn't there to receive it, though...
