More quotes by Rick Riordan
Frank imitated the voice of Vitellius: 'They're wimps! Back in my day, we died all the time, and we liked it!
Rick Riordan
Not all powers are spectacular. Hestia looked at me. Sometimes the hardest power to master is the power of yielding.
Rick Riordan
Percy, lesser beings do many horrible things in the name of the gods. That does not mean we gods approve. The way our sons and daughters act in our names... well, it usually says more about THEM than it does about us.
Rick Riordan
I think I write for reluctant readers. Of course I want everyone to enjoy my books, but if the kids in the back row who normally don't pick up a book are engaged with what I'm writing, along with the kids who are big readers anyway, then I really feel like I've done my job.
Rick Riordan
The Set animal’s jaws were pried open so fast that it yelped and let go of my arm. I stood, now encased in a magical barrier twice my normal size, and kicked Leroy into a wall. Good! said Horus. Now dispatch the beast to the netherworld! Quiet man. I’m doing all the work.
Rick Riordan
And togheter, holding hands, he and Annabeth fell into the endless darkness
Rick Riordan
At first I was protecting you two because I promised. Now even if I hadn't promised, I would. You two are like kittens to me. I won't fail you again. I'll admit I got a lump in my throat. I'd never been called someone's kitten before. Sadie sniffled. She brushed something from under her eye. You're not going to wash us, are you?

Imitation is flattery

This is Buford,” Leo announced. “You name your furniture?” Frank asked.

Mr. D, wearing his leopard-skin jogging suit and rummaging through the refrigerator. He looked up lazily. Do you mind? Where's Chiron! I shouted. How rude. Mr. D took a swig from a jug of grape juice. Is that how you say hello? Hello, I amended. We're about to die! Where's Chiron?

To all my librarian friends, champions of books, true magicians in the House of Life. Without you, this writer would be lost in the Dust.
Rick Riordan
Number eight, the silver one, belongs to Artemis. She vowed to be a maiden forever. So of course, no kids. The cabin is, you know, honorary. If she didn't have one, she'd be mad.
Rick Riordan
I'd missed Annabeth probably more than I wanted to admit.
Rick Riordan
She said this in the same way you might say Fields of Punishment or Hades's gym shorts.
Rick Riordan
Poseidon held out his arms and gave me a hug. I realized, a little embarrassed, that I'd never actually hugged my dad before. He was warm—like a regular human—and he smelled of a salty beach and fresh sea air.
Rick Riordan
Jason's fingers itched to draw his sword. He'd met plenty of scary demigods, but he was starting to realize that Nico di Angelo--as pale and gaunt as he looked--might be more than he could handle.

Are you crazy? Probably
Rick Riordan
Gods tend to be selfish. Even when they're helpful, they always have their own motives. That's why you have to be careful about trusting them.

Hello, Hazel Levesque.
Rick Riordan
The Death Mist is not for helping! Akhlys shrieked. It shrouds mortals in misery as their souls pass into the Underworld. It is the very breath of Tartarus, of death, of despair! Awesome, Percy said. Could we get two orders of that to go?
