    “Let us find the dam snack bar," Zoe said. "We should eat while we can."
    Grover cracked a smile. "The dam snack bar?"
    Zoe blinked. "Yes. What is funny?"
    "Nothing," Grover said, trying to keep a straight face. "I could use some dam french fries."
    Even Thalia smiled at that. "And I need to use the dam restroom."
    ...
    I started cracking up, and Thalia and Grover joined in, while Zoe just looked at me. "I do not understand."
    "I want to use the dam water fountain," Grover said.
    "And..." Thalia tried to catch her breath. "I want to buy a dam t-shirt.”

    Rick Riordan
    “In a way, it's nice to know that there are Greek gods out there, because you have somebody to blame when things go wrong. For instance, when you're walking away from a bus that's just been attacked by monster hags and blown up by lightning, and it's raining on top of everything else, most people might think that's just really bad luck; when you're a half-blood, you understand that some devine force is really trying to mess up your day.”
    Rick Riordan, The Titan's Curse

    “Dreams like a podcast,
    Downloading truth in my ears.
    They tell me cool stuff."
    "Apollo?" I guess, because I figured nobody else could make a haiku that bad.
    He put his finger to his lips. "I'm incognito. Call me Fred."
    "A god named Fred?”
    Rick Riordan

    Rick Riordan
    “What if it lines up like it did in the Trojan War ... Athena versus Poseidon?"
    "I don't know. But I just know that I'll be fighting next to you."
    "Why?"
    "Because you're my friend, Seaweed Brain. Any more stupid questions?”

    Rick Riordan
    “You are okay?" he asked. "Not eaten by monsters?"
    "Not even a little bit." I showed him that I still had both arms and both legs, and Tyson clapped happily.
    "Yay!" he said. "Now we can eat peanut butter sandwiches and ride fish ponies! We can fight monsters and see Annabeth and make things go BOOM!"
    I hoped he didn't mean all at the same time, but I told him absolutely, we'd have a lot of fun this summer.”

    “Hades raised an eyebrow. When he sat forward in his throne, shadowy faces appeared in the folds of his black robes, faces of torment,as if the garment was stitched of trapped souls from the Fields of Punishment, trying to get out. The ADHD part of me wondered, off-task, whether the rest of his clothes were made the same way. What horrible things would you have to do in your life to get woven into Hades' underwear?”
    Rick Riordan, The Lightning Thief

    Rick Riordan
    “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.”

    “Can you surf really well, then?"
    I looked at Grover, who was trying hard not to laugh.
    "Jeez, Nico," I said. "I've never really tried."
    He went on asking questions. Did I fight a lot with Thalia, since she was a daughter of Zeus? (I didn't answer that one.) If Annabeth's mother was Athena, the goddess of wisdom, then why didn't Annabeth know better than to fall off a cliff? (I tried not to strangle Nico for asking that one.) Was Annabeth my girlfriend? (At this point, I was ready to stick the kid in a meat-flavored sack and throw him to the wolves.)”

    “Um...is that thing tame?" Frank said.
    The horse whinnied angrily.
    "I don't think so," Percy guessed. "He just said, 'I will trample you to death, silly Chinese Canadian baby man'.

    Annabeth: Come back alive, Seaweed Brain. Then we'll see.”

    Rick Riordan
    “She glared at me like she was about to punch me, but then she did something that surprised me even more. She kissed me.
    "Be careful seaweed brain." She said putting on her invisible cap and disappearing.

    “We only came close to dying six or seven times, which I thought was pretty good. Once, I lost my grip and found myself dangling by one hand from a ledge fifty feet above the rocky surf. But I found another handhold and kept climbing. A minute later Annabeth hit a slippery patch of moss and her foot slipped. Fortunately, she found something else to put it against. Unfortunately, that something was my face.
    "Sorry," she murrmured.
    "S'okay," I grunted, though I'd never really wanted to know what Annabeth's sneaker tasted like.”
    Rick Riordan, The Sea of Monsters
