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 remember my first senior nationals...and I was so scared when I got out there my legs felt like really stiff and I felt if I fell down I would be kind of like Bambi when he makes the spins across the ice with his legs out like this [spreads arms wide] and as funny as it would be, I did do that on the first practice at my senior nationals in the final group.
