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.

(W)inning at Marshall's lit a fire in me. I'll say this – it was great to win again. It was hilarious to me that they lost the broadcast signal right before I fell during my first program, because the people voting at home didn't see that mistake. I still think friends in the Russian mafia must have had something to do with this.
