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 story is very pure and very very similar to many Americans'. I'm from a small town, and I dreamed of bigger and better things, and I worked hard to achieve them. And the cover of my book is basically what the public think of me. And I wanted that to be very much the case where people do judge my book by the cover, read my story, and come away with a completely evolved sense of who Johnny Weir is.
