Johnny Weir

Whether witty or wise, controversial or charming, shocking or silly, sweet or sassy, provocative or profound, inspiring or infuriating--or any combination of those--Johnny Weir, the three-time U.S. Champion, two-time Olympian, and World medalist figure skater, almost always says something worth quoting whenever he commentates a skating competition, makes a TV appearance, gives an interview, holds a press conference, writes, tweets, or is caught on video. His quotes needed to be collected and shared; hence this blog.

My characters are a little bit askew, I suppose. They're not very literal, and I suppose the character I was trying to play was kind of maybe a hot, neon pink cigarette kind of falling away toward the end of its life. Maybe that's the character I was trying to play. You can kind of make anything out of it that you want.
