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.

[Q: What is your biggest regret?]

I live my life with no regrets. You learn from everything you give up or fail to accomplish, and you accomplish new things from failing at old ones. If I offend someone today, tomorrow someone will find strength from what I did. If I judge too harshly one day, the next day I will be judged harshly and will learn from my mistakes. Regrets are for people who dwell and wallow. I do not.
