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 get criticized all the time for saying whatever I want, and I get sent [back] to media training. But if I don't say what I want, what am I going to talk about? "Hi, okay, um, the interview I did with someone else a few months ago? It's still pretty accurate. Just rerun that."
