Quotes by Ashley Winstead  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Sometimes, you really didn’t have to lift a finger to get exactly what you wanted. Sometimes, all you had to do was sit back and do nothing.”
Ashley Winstead, In My Dreams I Hold a Knife

“It turns out the real you is a quilt, made up of the light and the dark. The life you’ve lived in sunshine and your shadow life, stretching underneath the surface of your mind like a deep underwater world, exerting invisible power. You are a living, breathing story made up of the moments in time you cherish, all strung together, and those you hide. The moments that seem lost. Until the day they’re not.”
Ashley Winstead, In My Dreams I Hold a Knife

“Wanting is dangerous. The less you want, the safer you'll be.”
Ashley Winstead, In My Dreams I Hold a Knife

“But no matter how much I tried to cling to the shining jewels of my accomplishments, it never took long before my shadow list surfaced. Everything I’d ever failed at, every second place, every rejection, mounting, mounting, mounting, until the suspicion became unbearable. (...) My life was a narrative I couldn’t parse, full of conflicting evidence.”
Ashley Winstead, In My Dreams I Hold a Knife
