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.

(to Quarryville Elementary School students at school assembly)

Blogger's note: Johnny attended Quarryville Elementary School as a child. He visited the school on December 1, 2006, to talk to the students and donate $1,000 for library books.
