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?

More quotes by Rick Riordan
You deal with mythological stuff for a few years, you learn that paradises are usually places where you get killed.
Rick Riordan
So few people did good in their lives. It was depressing.
Rick Riordan
If anybody felt worse than I did, it was Amos. I had just enough magic to turn myself into a falcon and him into a hamster (hey, I was rushed!)
Rick Riordan
I will call him Small Bob, said Bob. He is a good monster. End of discussion.The Titan hefted his spear and they continued marching into the gloom.
Rick Riordan
Hubris means deadly pride. Thinking you can do things better than anyone else.
Rick Riordan
Five shall go west to the goddess in chains, One shall be lost in the land without rain, The bane of Olympus shows the trail, Campers and Hunters combined prevail, The Titan's curse must one withstand, And one shall perish by a parent's hand
Rick Riordan
If i'm going to survive, it won't be because i have a lion-skin cloak. I'm not Hercules.
Rick Riordan
I try very hard to be annoying. Don’t insult my ability to annoy.
Rick Riordan
I'm so glad you're here, Aphrodite said. War is coming. Bloodshed is inevitable. So there's really only one thing to do. Uh... and that is? Annabeth ventured. Why, have tea and chat, obviously
Rick Riordan
Even strength must bow to wisdom sometimes.
Rick Riordan
Percy: Don't I get a kiss for luck? It's kind of a tradition, right? Annabeth: Come back alive, Seaweed Brain. Then we'll see.
Rick Riordan
What-what do you want? Annabeth asked, trying to maintain a tone of confidence. The voice cackled maliciously. 'To curse you, of course! To destroy you thousand times in the name of Mother Night!' Only a thousand times? Percy murmured. Oh, good...I thought we were in trouble.
Rick Riordan
I can see hope inside it. Rachel ran her fingers over the ceramic designs. So fragile.
Rick Riordan
I suppose with so many things suddenly getting better, the things that were still missing hurt even worse.
Rick Riordan
The weight of the sky dropped onto Atlas's back, almost smashing him flat until he managed to get to his knees, struggling to get out from under the crushing weight of the sky. But it was too late. Noooooo! He bellowed so hard it shook the mountain. Not again! Atlas was trapped under his old burden.
Rick Riordan
What’s the point of being a magician if you can’t wave your wand and make the people you care about feel better?
Rick Riordan
Race you to the road? I said. You are so going to lose. She (Annabeth) took off down Half-Blood Hill and I sprinted after her. For once, I didn't look back.
Rick Riordan
But I've never even been to Olympus! Zeus is crazy! Chiron and Grover glanced nervously at the sky. The clouds didn't seem to be parting around us, as Grover had promised. They were rolling straight over our valley, sealing us in like a coffin lid. Er, Percy ...? Grover said. We don't use the c-word to describe the Lord of the Sky.
Rick Riordan
Right before the game, she strolled up to me. Hey, Seaweed Brain. Will you stop calling me that? She knows I hate that name, mostly because I never have a good comeback. She's the daughter of Athena, which doesn't give me a lot of ammunition. I mean, Owl-head and Wise Girl are kind of lame insults.
Rick Riordan
Your head is full of kelp.
