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.

You've got to deal with what you've got and you work with it. I may not have the most talent of any other skater in the world. I may not be Gandhi. I may not be a great person, the best person in the world. So I have to deal with who I am, and I have to deal with my life and I have to deal with my career choices and my personal choices and my life choices. Some days are good, some days are bad.
