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.

I don’t really like to have rules for anything, I find it’s not very freeing when you abide by rules of any kind. I love wearing white pants before and after Labor Day. I’m not a big believer in tiny handbags. The jig is up, you don’t only carry lipstick, a credit card and phone. I carry big bags—it’s not even a murse or a man-bag, I carry a straight up purse every day. I need it. I carry sunscreen, moisturizer, phones, cameras, this and that—I need all those things just in case I’m driving down the highway and a boat has fallen off its carriage and is sitting in the middle of the road, I need to be ready to take a picture. I’m prepared at all times.
