To butch up figure skating is a ridiculous idea, because there's no putting me in some two-piece pants suit to skate in. I love my glitter, I love my prettiness, I love getting my hair done before the events, I love putting on makeup because I'm going to be on TV.

His quotes needed to be collected and shared; hence this blog.
