I'm not a dumb person. I'm not going to throw myself out in front of the cameras of the world and being judged if I know in my heart that I'm not good enough to be there. And I've been in this sport long enough that I can definitely make that decision for myself.

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.
