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 " Getting something and having the wits to use it...those are two different things. "
3 " But remember, boy, that a kind act can sometimes be as powerful as a sword. "
4 " Don't feel bad, I'm usually about to die. "
5 " You deal with mythological stuff for a few years, you learn that paradises are usually places where you get killed. "
6 " Rachel: You're a half-blood, too?Annabeth: Shhh! Just announce it to the world, how about?Rachel: Okay. Hey, everybody! These two aren't human! They're half Greek god!...They don't seem to care. "
7 " We'd spent maybe ten minutes together, during which time I'd accidentally swung a sword at her, she'd saved my life, and I'd run away chased by a band of supernatural killing machines. You know, your typical chance meeting. "
8 " We were just looking at maps... "
9 " People are more difficult to work with than machines. And when you break a person, he can't be fixed. "
10 " You must carry on my spirit. It can no longer be carried by a god. It must be taken up by all of you. - Pan "
11 " But remember, boy, that a kind act can sometimes be as powerful as a sword. As a mortal, I was never a great fighter or athlete or poet. I only made wine. The people in my village laughed at me. They said I would never amount to anything. Look at me now. Sometimes small things can become very large indeed. "
12 " The wine god sighed. 'Oh Hades if I know. But remember, boy, that a kind act can sometimes be as powerful as a sword. As a mortal, I was never a great fighter or athlete or poet. I only made wine. The people in my village laughed at me. They said I would never amount to anything. Look at me now. Sometimes small things can become very large indeed.' He left me alone to think about that. And as I watched Clarisse and Chris singing a stupid campfire song together, holding hands in the darkness, where they thought nobody could see them, I had to smile. "
13 " I pulled out Riptide. "
14 " You hit the Lord of The Titans with a blue plastic hairbrush. "
15 " Don't worry, goat boy. The milkman is dead. "
16 " He just summoned the dead with coke and cheeseburgers "
17 " When I got across, I looked back and saw Tyson giving Grover a piggyback ride (or was it a goatyback ride?). "
18 " Percy: The Heka-what? Annabeth: The Hundred-Handed Ones. They called them that because... well, they had a hundred hands. They were the elder brothers of the Cyclopes. Tyson: Very powerful. Wonderful! As tall as the sky. So strong they can break mountains! Percy: Cool. Unless you're a mountain. "
19 " 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. "
20 " I turned and found Dionysus standing there, still in his black suit.Walk with me,” he said.Where to?” I asked suspiciously.Just to the campfire,” he said. “I was beginning to feel better, so Ithought I would talk with you a bit. You always manage to annoy me.”Uh, thanks. "
