We need music, Nico said. How's your singing? Um, no. Can't you just, like, tell it to open? You're the son of Hades and all. It's not so easy. We need music. I was pretty sure if I tried to sing, all I would cause was an avalanche.

I could always see myself being a teacher. I remember sitting in class as a kid, listening to the teacher and thinking, you know, I'm pretty sure I could explain that a little bit better.

Gaea?” Leo shook his head. “Isn’t that Mother Nature? She’s supposed to have, like, flowers in her hair and birds singing around her and dear and rabbits doing her laundry.” “Leo, that’s Snow White,” Piper said.
Rick Riordan
Can’t this thing go any faster?” Thalia demanded. Zoe glared at her. “I cannot control traffic.” You both sound like my mother,” I said. Shut up!” they both said in union.
Rick Riordan
Leo: So...giants who can throw mountains. Friendly wolves that will eat us if we show weakness. Evil espresso drinks. Gotcha. Maybe this isn't the best time to bring up my psycho babysitter. Piper: Is that another joke?
Rick Riordan
Eternity with Artemis? He heaved a big sigh. Thalia rolled her eyes. You satyrs. You're all in love with Artemis. Don't you get that she'll never love you back? But she's so…into nature, Grover swooned. You're nuts, said Thalia. Nuts and berries, Grover said dreamily. Yeah.

I haven't devoured a soul in...What month is this? March?

I am your friend Bob!

Her secret fear? Maybe she didn't tried hard enough.

Mr. D, Grover asked timidly, if you're not going to eat it, could I have your Diet Coke can?
Rick Riordan
Words had started swimming off the page, circling my head, the letters doing one-eighties as if they were riding skateboards.
Rick Riordan
Hey, guys! Grover yelled somewhere above us. I think she's unconscious! Roooaaarrr! Maybe not, Grover corrected.
Rick Riordan
Back up shall we? When my brother, the crazy chicken warrior, turned into a falcon and went up the pyramid’s chimney with his new friend, the fruit bat, he left me playing nurse to two very wounded people—which I didn’t appreciate, and which I wasn’t particularly good at.
Rick Riordan
Annabeth: Hey, Seaweed Brain. Percy: Will you stop calling me that? Annabeth: You know you love it.
Rick Riordan
Monsters don't die. They just dissipate into smoke and dust, which saves heroes a lot of trouble cleaning up after a fight.
Rick Riordan
You have to rise above the squabbling and chaos, and keep believing. You have to always keep your goals in mind.” -Hera, goddess of marriage

Hazel frowned. Why that one? You don't see the ghost? Frank asked. Ghost? Nico asked. Okay... if Frank was seeing a ghost that the Underworld kids couldn't see, something was definitely wrong.

He had a crush on a blueberry bush once.
Rick Riordan
I thought about all the things I was suddenly able to do—like fight with a sword and summon a magical shell of armor. Those were not things I covered in home school.
Rick Riordan
After all the dangerous adventures I'd had, I couldn't die like this. Sadie would be devastated. Then, once she got over her grief, she'd track down my soul in the Egyptian afterlife and tease me mercilessly for how stupid I'd been.
Rick Riordan
Why can't you place a blessing like that on us? I asked. It only works on wild animals. So it would only affect Percy, Annabeth reasoned. Hey! I protested.
