More quotes by Rick Riordan
Hi, this is Ganymede, cup-bearer to Zeus, and when I'm out buying wine for the Lord of the Skies, I always buckle up!
Rick Riordan
Aphrodite: Pfft. That's not the point. Follow your heart. Percy: But... I don't know where it's going. My heart, I mean.
Rick Riordan
There is always a way out for those clever enough to find it.
Rick Riordan
Grover and Nico came back from their walk, and Grover helped me fix up my wounded arm. It's green! Nico said with delight.
Rick Riordan
Suspecting and knowing are not the same.
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.
Rick Riordan
Annabeth sat up and glared at her ankle. You HAD to break, she scolded it. The ankle did not reply.
Rick Riordan
Grover: It’s a very sweet love story. I get misty-eyed every time I play it. So does Percy, but I think that’s because he’s laughing at me.
Rick Riordan
Don't die on me, she ordered. You are not dying on me. Yes, ma'am. He felt light-headed, but she was about the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen. Her hair was smoldering. Her face was smudged with soot. She had a cut on her arm, her dress was torn, and she was missing a boot. Beautiful.
Rick Riordan
The cafe windows wrapped all the way around the observation floor, which gave us a beautiful panoramic view of the skeleton army that had come to kill us.
Rick Riordan
True, you're the weakest of us all, but you're still one of the five, and there is power in collecting the complete set. He paused, then grinned. The complete Set! That's funny! Now let's consume your energy and entomb your soul, shall we?
Rick Riordan
Hubris means deadly pride. Thinking you can do things better than anyone else.
Rick Riordan
That really was NOT fun, though. Well, the hitting-her-with-a-stick part, that was fun. But crashing into a concrete bear? NOT fun.
Rick Riordan
The waiter brought fresh-baked bread and cheese, a bottle of sparkling water for Annabeth, and a Coke with ice for me (because I’m a barbarian).
Rick Riordan
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.
Rick Riordan
He crossed the street toward the man in the trench coat, which left me with two choices: follow my dad and see what was going on, or do what I was told. I decided on the slightly less dangerous path. I went to retrieve my sister
Rick Riordan
You’re probably thinking: Wait, you just charged in without a plan? But Annabeth and I had been fighting together for years. We knew each other’s abilities. We could anticipate each other’s moves. I might have felt awkward and nervous about being her boyfriend, but fighting with her? That came naturally. Hmm…that sounded wrong. Oh, well.
Rick Riordan
Life is only precious because it ends, kid. Take it from a god. You mortals don't know how lucky you are
Rick Riordan
Well … Zeus approves, Aeolus muttered. ―He says … he says it would be better if you could avoid saving her until after the weekend, because he has a big party planned—Ow! That‘s Aphrodite yelling at him, reminding him that the solstice starts at dawn. She says I should help you. And Hephaestus… yes. Hmm. Very rare they agree on anything. Hold on
Rick Riordan
Seriously, who has monogrammed pajamas?
