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 quality do you least admire in yourself? In other people?]

I hate that I immediately cut people off after they disappoint me. Whether they were my friend and wronged me in some way, or they have just come into my life and I find out they aren’t capable of using their brain, I don’t offer second chances easily. Once you have disappointed me, I will remain disappointed. In others, I despise small-mindedness. Be open to others, because there isn’t anything that another human can’t teach you--whether you agree with them or not.
