1 " Be careful of love. It'll twist your brain around and leave you thinking up is down and right is wrong. "
― Rick Riordan , The Battle of the Labyrinth (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #4)
2 " The world was collapsing, and the only thing that really mattered to me was that she was alive. "
― Rick Riordan , The Last Olympian (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #5)
3 " Afterward, I had the last laugh. I made an air bubble at the bottom of the lake. Our friends kept waiting for us to come up, but hey-when you are the son of Poseidon, you don't have to hurry. And it was pretty much the best underwater kiss of all time. "
― Rick Riordan
4 " Annabeth pressed her lips to Percy’s ear. “I love you.”She wasn’t sure he could hear her—but if they died, she wanted those to be her last words. "
― Rick Riordan , The House of Hades (The Heroes of Olympus, #4)
5 " But beauty is about finding the right fit, the most natural fit, To be perfect, you have to feel perfect about yourself --- avoid trying to be something you're not. For a goddess, that's especially hard. We can change so easily.-Aphrodite "
― Rick Riordan , The Lost Hero (The Heroes of Olympus, #1)
6 " Percy pulled Annabeth close and kissed her...long enough for it to get really awkward for Piper, though she said nothing. She thought about the old rule of Aphrodite's cabin: that to be recognized as a daughter of the love goddess, you had to break someone's heart. Piper had long ago decided to change that rule. Percy and Annabeth were a perfect example of why. You should have to make someone`s heart whole; that was a much better test. "
― Rick Riordan , The Blood of Olympus (The Heroes of Olympus, #5)
7 " My point is that love is the most powerful motivator in the world. It spurs mortals to greatness. Their noblest, bravest acts are done for love. "
8 " Then she did something so unexpected Nico would later think he dreamed it. She walked up to Nico, who was standing to one side in the shadows, as usual. She grabbed his hand and pulled him gently into the firelight. ‘We had one home,’ she said. ‘Now we have two.’ She gave Nico a big hug and the crowd roared with approval. For once, Nico didn’t feel like pulling away. He buried his face in Reyna’s shoulder and blinked the tears out of his eyes. "
9 " She held up her calloused, grimy fingers. Leo couldn't help thinking there was nothing hotter than a girl who didn't mind getting her hands dirty. But of course, that was just a general comment. Didn't apply to Calypso. Obviously. "
10 " Love was the most savage monster of all. "
11 " You promised, Seaweed Brain. We would not get separated! Ever again!” “You’re impossible!” “Love you too! "
12 " Love is on every side, and no one's side. Don't ask what Love can do for you. "
13 " Fear can’t be reasoned with. Neither can hate. They’re like love. They’re almost identical emotions. That’s why Ares and Aphrodite like each other. Their twin sons – Fear and Panic – were spawned from both war and love. "
14 " Nico studied his face – his sea-green eyes, his grin, his ruffled black hair. Somehow Percy Jackson seemed like a regular guy now, not a mythical figure. Not someone to idolize or crush on. "
15 " She had to go on this quest. The fate of the world might depend on it. But part of him wanted to say: Forget the world. He didn’t want to be without her. "
― Rick Riordan , The Mark of Athena (The Heroes of Olympus, #3)
16 " If my life is going to mean anything, I have to live it myself. "
― Rick Riordan , The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #1)
17 " You will suffer, son of Hades!’ What else is new? Nico thought. "
18 " Life is only precious because it ends, kid. Take it from a god. You mortals don't know how lucky you are "
― Rick Riordan , The Son of Neptune (The Heroes of Olympus, #2)
19 " A wind that blows aimlessly is no good to anyone. "
20 " No,’ Nico said. ‘Getting a second life is one thing. Making it a better life, that’s the trick.’ As soon as he said it, Nico realized he could’ve been talking about himself. He decided not to bring that up. "
