If it's gold and shiny, most likely I'll put it on my wall. I would totally marry Seth Rogen. And if you're trying to look like someone else, you never will, so stop.

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.

Anyone else ever ponder the simplicity of life married to an Amish man?
Back home in Lancaster County, PA yesterday made kinda wonder how I’d
look in buggy.

It doesn't make a difference to me that my life is splashed in newspapers, or if it was just for my parents to see what I was going through. It hurts all the same.

My name is Johnny Weir. I have succeeded many times but I am just as
proud of many of my great failures. I failed to win a medal at the
Olympics, but I went twice and skated the performances of my lifetime. I
failed to have a successful first marriage, but I allowed myself to
love. I have naked photos on the Internet, but my body is nothing to be
ashamed of.

My marriage makes my life official. It's not a question of is he gay, is he not gay, can I be the woman that will change him, is he a stereotypical gay person that changes boyfriends every week and parties a lot. A lot of those thoughts are quiet now because I'm married, and I'm an upstanding young citizen.

[W]hether it’s a diet, a marriage or a goal, one must allow simple
pleasures but never let their need to exorbitantly self satisfy lead you
from your course. There are enough enemies we make in life who will try
to derail us, why let the first attack come from within?

With our marriage vows in the last moments of 2011 came my
responsibility to become an upstanding Voronov and a social butterfly
flittering around this Soviet, Russian, Ukrainian, Jewish, Communist,
Non-Communist, glamorous family so that they understand that I am a nice
goy and that I won’t shame the established name they’ve created over
generations. I also needed to convince a bunch of them that I didn’t
turn the star grandbaby into a gay man for my own amusement.

Through marriage I was able to give up my phobias about social
situations and not hiding behind my front when I’m with people who
matter.

When my new grandmother heard that her son’s son was a gay man, she
thought for sure it was just a phase and I even heard that I possibly
tricked Victor into marrying me.

My husband was not only coming out of the closet as a gay man with me,
he was also coming out as married and most of the extended family
learned about us through gossip and news rather than a wedding
announcement or phone call. Start your engines.

When you merge your life with someone else’s, there are all sorts of
things you must learn and change--either about yourself or the one who
is lucky enough to have you. You have to befriend their friends. You
have to learn what toilet paper they like. You have to learn about their
mood swings, family history, and even feign sharing their interests,
like in gadgets or Birkin bags.

No, I'm an old-fashioned kind of girl, and I like somebody to be wed to me, always and forever, and only gets this. [sweeps hand in front of himself]

When it comes to gay marriage, I hear a lot of church speak and child welfare questions. Apparently, the stereotypical gay couple can’t let the gay rub off on their children, adopted or surrogate, because they’ll be a burden on society later, and it will apparently agitate Jesus.

I can say from personal experience that if you are committed to
something, whether it be a marriage, the Olympics, becoming a managing
partner at your firm, or even a home owner, it is possible to achieve
because you work hard for it. But I have also grown enough to know that
the idea that the ability all lies within you is a load of crap.

I married my husband because I love him and want to be with him all the
time, no matter how often my inner diva tells me I should go solo.
