Our skin is very thin. It doesn't take much for us to jump off a ledge or to kill one another. It can happen very, very quickly.

More quotes by Anderson Cooper
I’d wanted emotion but couldn’t find it here, so I settled for motion.
Anderson Cooper
Selling your apartment in New York is like dating a manic-depressive.. you get used to cycles of elation and despondency. Every time someone would come to see the apartment, there was the thrill of the date. You want to be presentable, so you clean the place up, make sure it smells good, put on some mood lighting and mellow music.
Anderson Cooper
It seems to me that [Andy Cohen] can write these diaries forever.
Anderson Cooper
If I'm hip, we've got a problem in this country. I really shouldn't be held up as any model of hipness. If anything, I think I'm sort of old school in my approach to objective reporting and not wearing my opinion on my sleeve. There's a lot of that in American TV news these days. Too much, in fact.
Anderson Cooper
If someone knows me and likes me or my work, they're more likely to allow me to tell their story. But it also cuts the other way.
Anderson Cooper
Politics was his passion, but he wasn't suited for the rough-and-tumble of the game. He felt things too deeply. There was no wall between his head and his heart.
Anderson Cooper
The whole celebrity culture thing - I'm fascinated by, and repelled by, and yet I end up knowing about it.
Anderson Cooper
Anytime you stop and talk to somebody and you learn about them, you start to walk in their shoes a little bit and you see things through a different lens.
Anderson Cooper
Learning what you don't want to do is the next best thing to figuring out what you want to do.
Anderson Cooper
If you feel like an outsider, you tend to observe things a lot more.
Anderson Cooper
Anyone who has experienced a certain amount of loss in their life has empathy for those who have experienced loss.
Anderson Cooper
You guys should know we do [ cover Obamacare, and ISIS, and radical Islamic terrorism] because you watch CNN all day long.
Anderson Cooper
My personal favorite [ moment] was when someone asked for one selfie too many and [Andy Cohen] snapped and tried to kill her by hugging her.
Anderson Cooper
As long as a journalist shows fairness and honesty in his or her work, their private life shouldn't matter.
Anderson Cooper
New Yorkers are predatory about real estate. When they sense softening, they move in for the kill.
Anderson Cooper
One of the things that Jon Kabat-Zinnn talks about is that everyone wants to figure out how to live longer. But this actually is a very easy way for you to live longer, maybe you're not extending your life, but you are present and living more of the moments of your life.
Anderson Cooper
I tend to relate more to people on television who are just themselves, for good or for bad, than I do to someone who I believe is putting on some sort of persona. The anchorman on 'The Simpsons' is a reasonable facsimile of some anchors who have that problem.
Anderson Cooper
You see people walking down the street with ear buds on and looking at this or whatever, talking to themselves. So there's more and more opportunity to never be where we actually are and just be.
Anderson Cooper
Just to be clear, if, like Pat Robertson, you somehow missed all the evidence, all the research, the depth and breadth of all the knowledge garnered about HIV and AIDS over the past three decades, you cannot get HIV if you share towels.
Anderson Cooper
I've always loved reporting from the field most of all. There's something about doing live TV and being there as it happens that's always appealed to me. I think there's great value to bearing witness to these events as they're actually happening.
