Johnny Weir quotes

There are some things I keep sacred. My middle name. Who I sleep with. And what kind of hand moisturizer I use. (Johnny Weir)
I grew my beard out a little bit just to show that, indeed, I am a man. View quote
Johnny Weir
Anytime you get men in glitter, it's a flamboyant occasion! View quote
Johnny Weir
When you have an audience standing and screaming the entire way through the short program and cheering every element you do, whether it's footwork, or spin, or a jump, to have that kind of emotion coming at you from every direction in the building, it's the most amazing sensation you can get as a sportsman.

Johnny Weir
The results are something I can't control, so I can't say 'damnit, I didn't place in the top three today.' I can't control any of that. I just skate. And my goal was to show my heart, to take them on a journey with me so they can feel me. View quote
Johnny Weir
Out of ugly, I think the most important thing to do in life is to make something beautiful. View quote
Johnny Weir
If he doesn't want to skate to music that's pretty and wear a pretty costume, then go rollerblade or skateboard or do one of those extreme sports. View quote
Johnny Weir
I'm not intimidated by anything, except maybe PETA standing outside with a bucket of blood. View quote
Johnny Weir
I'd love to see a 6-foot-2-tall, skinny man doing a halfpipe on figure skates. View quote
Johnny Weir
Love myself I do. Not everything, but I love the good as well as the bad. I love my crazy lifestyle, and I love my hard discipline. I love my freedom of speech and the way my eyes get dark when I'm tired. I love that I have learned to trust people with my heart, even if it will get broken. I am proud of everything that I am and will become. View quote
Johnny Weir
I'm going to be a happy housewife. I'm going to be washing boxers and cooking and doing all those sorts of housewife duties. I just want to be happy and proud of every single day. (Johnny Weir)
I want people to be taken away to another planet when they watch me skate. I want them to be transported into a dream world. View quote
Johnny Weir
I'm different, and I have to be a warrior to be that way. But I have had some success; I hope I have touched the lives of some wonderful people, all by being what I see as myself but some others people see as different. View quote
Johnny Weir
Masculinity is what you believe it to be. I think masculinity and femininity is something that's very old-fashioned. There's a whole new generation of people who aren't defined by their sex or race or who they like to sleep with. View quote
Johnny Weir
I played soccer, and I was the kid who ran the wrong way, or I was pretending to be some sort of zebra and I would flail my arms and kick up my legs. View quote

If just one person, one child who is made to feel isolated, looks at me and sees that it is okay to be your own person and walk down your own path, then everything I have ever gone through will be worth it. View quote
Johnny Weir
I love skating and sparkling and flying around the ice, and people clap for you. It's an amazing feeling. View quote
Johnny Weir
Of course I was bullied and of course I was called names - my last name is Weir. That's very, very close to 'weird,' or 'queer' and any of those words. But I've never been anyone to cry over spilled milk or be upset because kids don't like me, or people don't like me... It makes my skin stronger and thicker. And why cry? Your mascara runs. View quote
Johnny Weir
You only live once. Life is a show. View quote
Johnny Weir
In spite of all the skills that I do have, to relate to the normal world I have no applicable skills. I can speak Russian, I can speak French. I know about Chanel. Especially vintage Chanel. I know what Halston is. All of these things, but they can't really be applied to a nine-to-five. (Johnny Weir)
I suppose being fierce is a very good thing, and a very cool thing. But more than fierce, I think I'm a strong person and a strong individual. And that's what I take with me every day. View quote
Johnny Weir
I have always thought that being a good American is appreciating the world, not just your own country. View quote
Johnny Weir
I think being in the public eye can only help me launch into the world of fashion. View quote
Johnny Weir
Figure skating is a bit dated - it's like that tweed jacket you pull out of the back of your closet from time to time, and I'm going to try to Chanel it up a little bit. View quote
