Nico's voice was like broken glass. I- I wasn't in love with Annabeth. You were jealous of her, Jason said. That's why you didn't want to be around her. Especially why you don't want to be around... him. It makes total sense.

I gave her my deluxe I'll-Kill-You-Later stare.

Thalia blushed. Hi, Lord Apollo. Zeus's girl, yes? Makes you my half sister. Used to be a tree, didn't you? Glad you're back. I hate it when pretty girls turn into trees. Man, I remember one time—

If you're heading downtown from Centeral Park, my advice is to take the subway. Flying pigs are faster but way more dangerous
Rick Riordan
For thousands of years, you humans have been throwing in everything as you come across--hopes, dreams, wishes that never came true. Irresponsible waste management, if you ask me.

No hero is above fear, Percy. And you have risen above every hero. - Poseidon

It’s hard to look in charge when you’re hunched over like Quasimodo.

Now, you'll have to answer my questions. Oh, very well, Set said. I like Brazil for the World Cup. I'd advise investing in platinum and small-cap funds. And your lucky numbers this week are 2, 13-- Not those questions! Menshikov snapped.

Amos stopped before the entrance, which was the size of a garage door—a dark heavy square of timber with no visible handle or lock. “Carter after you.” “Um, how do I—” “How do you think?” Great another mystery. I was about to suggest we ram Amos’s head against it and see if that worked.
