„Skutočný svet je miestom, kde sú príšery.“

“Different elevator music was playing since my last visit-that old disco song "Stayin' Alive." A terrifying image flashed through my mind of Apollo in bell-bottom pants and a slinky silk shirt.”

“Cabin Fifteen does that to everyone," Annabeth warned. "If you ask me, this place is even more dangerous than the Ares cabin. At least with Ares, you can learn where the land mines are."
"Land mines?”

“Hercules used noise! Brass bells! He scared them away with the most horrible sound he could-" said Percy
"Percy… Chiron's collection!”

“Destroy it?' Leo was appalled. 'You've got a life-size bronze dragon, and you want to destroy it?'
'It breathes fire,' Nyssa explained. 'It's deadly and out of control.'
'But it's a dragon!”

“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.”

“You promised, Seaweed brain. We would not get separated! Ever again!”

“Leo dropped into the pool and approched the cage. "Hola, Tia. Little bit of trouble?"
She [Hera] crossed her arms and sighed in exasperation. "Don't inspect me like I'm one of your machines, Leo Valdez. Get me out of here!”

“Great, I thought. We just blowtorched a national monument.”

“What are you talking about?" Narcissus demanded. "I am amazing. Everyone knows this."
"Amazing at pure suck," Leo said. "If I was as suck as you, I'd drown myself. Oh wait, you already did that.”

“The wood nymph instructors left me in the dust. They told me not to worry about it. They'd had centuries of practice running away from lovesick gods. But still, it was a little humiliating to be slower than a tree.”

“Down in the water, Octavian yelled, “Get me out of here! I’ll kill you!”
“Tempting,” Percy called down.”

“Some pain shouldn't be wished away so easily. It had to be dealt with, even embraced.”

“That was so completely unfair that I told Tantalus to go chase a donut, which didn't help his mood.”

“Your head is full of kelp.”

“Wow. When he started looking back on the war with Kronos as the good old days--that was sad.”

“Seriously, who has monogrammed pajamas?”

“I can't get through the year without getting kicked out or blowing something up.”

“Leo: I'm almost out of gas! Woah, that came out wrong. I meant the burning kind!”

“Red cattle," Annabeth said. "The cattle of the sun."
"What?" I [Percy] asked.
"They're sacred to Apollo."
"Holy cows?”

“This is Buford,” Leo announced.
“You name your furniture?” Frank asked.”

“She'd secretly had a crush on him since they were twelve years old. Last summer, she'd fallen for him hard.”

“Catch that last episode of Doctor Who? Oh, right. You were trudging through the Pit of Eternal Damnation!”

“We’ve arrived,” Leo announced. “Time to Split.”
Frank groaned. “Can we leave Valdez in Croatia?”

“I've been waiting a long time for a quest, seaweed brain," she said. "Athena is no fan of Poseidon, but if you're going to save the world, I'm the best person to keep you from messing up.”

“Back in my day, we died all the time, and we liked it!”

“Number eight, the silver one, belongs to Artemis. She vowed to be a maiden forever. So of course, no kids. The cabin is, you know, honorary. If she didn't have one, she'd be mad.”

“Wisdom's daughter walks alone,
The mark of Athena burns through Rome.”

“Please, Percy… change your clothes. You smell like you've been run over by an electric horse.”

“When she kissed me, I had the feeling my brain was melting right through my body.”
