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.

Well, it's a very big deal for me to teach people--not just kids, but even adults. There are so many people out there living behind a shield of what they think the world wants to see. Life's too short for that. I'm very much about being unique and following your own path and falling down and getting yourself back up, not looking to someone else to help you.
