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 think Evan Lysacek is a strong, consistent skater and he is definitely somebody who is one of my top rivals. He usually does something very interesting with his choreography and his jumps are decent, so he is definitely near the top of the sport. I don't like losing to people I've previously beaten, and Evan defeated me three times last season, but in my defense I was injured the three times he beat me. I love competing against him because he is so strong, but I don't want to lose to him.
