More quotes by Anderson Cooper
A lot of compelling stories in the world aren't being told, and the fact that people don't know about them compounds the suffering.
Anderson Cooper
I went to a high school reunion a couple years ago and realized that the kids who were the most unusual in high school are the ones who are the most interesting now and the ones who were popular are dull and boring.
Anderson Cooper
I think the notion of traditional anchor is fading away - the all-knowing, all-seeing person who speaks from on high. I don't think the audience really buys that anymore. As a viewer, I know I don't buy it.
Anderson Cooper
Did you know that according to legend, the guy who became Buddha decided to seek enlightenment the day he got a touch of gray? Gray hairs, the would-be Buddha said, are like angels sent by the god of death.
Anderson Cooper
The people in Tacloban have great dignity and deserve better than what they have gotten
Anderson Cooper
I’d wanted emotion but couldn’t find it here, so I settled for motion.
Anderson Cooper
Be honest about what you see, get out of the way and let the story reveal itself
Anderson Cooper
Anyone who says they're not afraid at the time of a hurricane is either a fool or a liar, or a little bit of both.
Anderson Cooper
Each child’s story is worthy of telling. There shouldn’t be a sliding scale of death. The weight of it is crushing.
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
I don't feel I'm very present in each moment. I feel like every moment I'm either thinking about something that's coming down the road or something that's been in the past.
Anderson Cooper
It's not your client's obligation, or your obligation, to prove your client's innocence. It is the prosecution's obligation to - to prove you're client's guilt.
Anderson Cooper
I suppose if you've never bitten your nails, there isn't any way to explain the habit. It's not enjoyable, really, but there is a certain satisfaction - pride in a job well done.
Anderson Cooper
The tide of history only advances when people make themselves fully visible.
Anderson Cooper
The world reacts very strangely to people they see on TV, and I can begin to understand how anchor monsters are made. If you're not careful, you can become used to being treated as though you're special and begin to expect it. For a reporter, that's the kiss of death.
Anderson Cooper
I've always giggled like a 13-year-old girl at a Justin Bieber meet and greet. There's nothing I can do about it but I've never not been able to stop.
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
I have always been very open and honest about this part of my life with my friends, my family, and my colleagues. In a perfect world, I don't think it's anyone else's business, but I do think there is value in standing up and being counted. I’m not an activist, but I am a human being and I don't give that up by being a journalist.
Anderson Cooper
Socialism isn't just a list of economic prescriptions for government. Perhaps above all, socialism is a moral view.
Anderson Cooper
I'm always uncomfortable with that notion of setting people up in order to kind of promote, you know, some sort of a face-off.
