Pizza! Hockey! Destroy! -Cal
Rick Riordan
Felix believed that the answer to every problem involved penguins but it wasn't fair to birds, and I was getting tired of teleporting them back home. Somewhere in Antarctica, a whole flock of Magellanic penguins were undergoing psychotherapy.

Just for you non-sea-god types out there, don't go swimming in New York Harbor. It may not be as filthy as it was in my mom's day, but that water will still probably make you grow a third eye or have mutant children when you grow up.
Rick Riordan

I couldn't believe I'd come this far, lost Tyson, suffered through so much, only to fail - stopped by a big stupid monster in a baby-blue tuxedo kilt. Nobody was going to swat down my friends like that! I mean... nobody, not Nobody. Ah, you know what I mean.
Rick Riordan
I wondered if she'd ever written on her notebook: GEB + NUT = TRUE LOVE or MRS GEB.
Rick Riordan
Percy!” he bellowed. He dropped his broom and ran at me. If you’ve never been charged by an enthusiastic Cyclops wearing a flowered apron and rubber cleaning gloves, I’m telling you, it’ll wake you up quick.
Rick Riordan
I feel incredibly fortunate to have had the level of success I've had. I was just writing stories for my own sons.
Rick Riordan
Some risks are worth taking, even if it means losing a life.
Rick Riordan
Wait just a minute, Ares growled. He pointed at Thalia and me. These two are dangerous. It'd be much safer, while we've got them here— Ares, Poseidon interrupted, they are worthy heroes. We will not blast my son to bits. Nor my daughter, Zeus grumbled. She has done well.

Nobody welcomes a war - not if they're smart. But war finds everyone sooner or later. It's inevitable.

Oh, god,” I said. “Sorry, sorry. Do I die now?” --Sadie to Zia

Jason muttered And I saw something...Really terrible. That was Hera, Thalia grumbled, Her Majesty, the Loose Cannon. That's it, Thalia Grace, Said the goddess. I will turn you into and aardvark, so help me- Stop it, you two, Piper said. Amazingly, they both shut up.
Rick Riordan
The whole campfire idea freaked Piper out. It made her think of that huge purple bonfire in the dreams, and her father tied to a stake. What she got instead was almost as terrifying: a sing-along.
Rick Riordan
And I was holding someone who was destined to be my best friend, or possibly my worst enemy.
