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.

I don't compromise who I am, or my feelings or thoughts, and that even includes my skating. If I'm sad, I'll wear black. If I'm happy I'll sport Elton John rhinestone sunglasses, because I'm pretentious, I get stubborn, and probably I won't want to do things your way.
