“It didn’t seem to matter how much he resented Percy Jackson; Nico would do anything for him. He hated himself for that.”

“Piper gave Lit a friendly sorry-about-that smile. Even with her hair messed up and wearing two-day-old clothes, she looked extremely cute, and Jason felt a little jealous she was giving Lit that smile.”

“Strange things conspire when one tries to cheat fate”

“Happy the Dragon was not so happy.”

“Love and war always go together. They are the peaks of human emotion! Evil and good, beauty and ugliness”

“I must admit I’m impressed, Sadie. You controlled your magic and controlled Isis. And you, Carter, did well turning into a lizard.”

“It is a costly thing, looking on the true face of Love.”

“Run!” Piper said.
“We are running!” Jason picked up the speed.
“Run better!” Leo shouted.”

“I'm gonna be percy Jackson when I grow up," she told Hazel solemnly.
Hazel Smiled and ruffled her hair. "That's a good thing to be, Julia."
"Although," Frank said. "Frank Zhang would be good too.”

“First, you start carrying a man satchel. Next thing you know, you're running around in a bathrobe and pink bunny slippers, chasing chickens with a weed whacker.”

“Huh," said Percy. "Never seen Jason fly before. He looks like a blond superman.”

“Coach," Annabeth said, "it was an accident. We were talking, and we fell asleep."
"Besides," Percy said, "you're starting to sound like Terminus."

“He was making a brave attempt, but Jason could see the sadness lingering in his eyes. Something had happened to him… something to do with Calypso.”

“Percy looked at his friends. "I'm getting tired of this guy's shirt."
"Combat time?" Piper grabbed her horn of plenty.
"I hate wonder bread," Jason said.
Together, they charged.”

“He'd gone from sixteen to seventy-five in a matter of seconds, but the old-man smell happened instantly, like boom. Congratulations! You stink!”

“Normally, as long as I'm telling him what to do, he wins in a fight.”

“I turned to Annabeth and shook my head in exasperation. “Always Hercules. What is it with Hercules?”

Annabeth shrugged. “He had a great publicist.”

“I turned and faced the Olympians.
"We need a shroud," I announced, my voice cracking. "A shroud for the son of Hermes.”

“Percy’d heard stories about amputees who had phantom pains where their missing legs

“The world will fall, the gods will die, and I will never achieve a perfect score on this stupid machine.

“We’re burning,” Sadie pointed out helpfully.
“Noticed!” I yelled back.”

“He likes to be noticed. He’s not exactly low-key.” “I get it,” I said. “Loki. Low-key.”

“Whoa, boy, he told himself. Golden Rule for Demigods: Thou shalt not Hokey Pokey with psychos.”

“Coach Hedge shouted, 'Let the movie star go, you big ugly cupcake! Or I'm gonna plant my hoof right up your…”

“I'd come to respect the bag.”

“I should’ve been very cross with Anubis. Kissing me without permission—the nerve!”
