Rick Riordan Quotes

I think anytime you’re writing to the middle grades, you’re writing to young readers who are trapped in a number of ways between two worlds: between childhood and adulthood, between their friends and their parents Picture Quote #1

Families are messy. Immortal families are eternally messy. Sometimes the best we can do is to remind each other that we’re related for better or for worse... and try to keep the maiming and killing to a minimum Picture Quote #1

Young people don’t always do what they’re told, but if they can pull it off and do something wonderful, sometimes they escape punishment Picture Quote #1

My dear young cousin, if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the eons, it’s that you can’t give up on your family, no matter how tempting they make it Picture Quote #1

You might as well ask an artist to explain his art, or ask a poet to explain his poem. It defeats the purpose. The meaning is only clear thorough the search Picture Quote #1

You deal with mythological stuff for a few years, you learn that paradises are usually places where you get killed Picture Quote #1

People are more difficult to work with than machines. And when you break a person, he can’t be fixed Picture Quote #1

Remake the world, a little at a time, each in your own corner of the world Picture Quote #1

The cafe windows wrapped all the way around the observation floor, which gave us a beautiful panoramic view of the skeleton army that had come to kill us Picture Quote #1

Jumping out a window five hundred feet above ground is not usually my idea of fun. Especially when I’m wearing bronze wings and flapping my arms like a duck Picture Quote #1

I can’t get through the year without getting kicked out or blowing something up Picture Quote #1

I found myself staring at her, which was stupid since I’d seen her a billion times. Still, she seemed so much more mature. It was kind of intimidating. I mean, sure, she’d always been cute, but she was starting to be seriously beautiful Picture Quote #1

I had weird dreams full of barnyard animals. Most of them wanted to kill me. The rest wanted food Picture Quote #1

The end of the world started when a pegasus landed on the hood of my car Picture Quote #1

I will not have a sea creature destroyed, if I can help it. And I can help it Picture Quote #1

Well... sure good to be together again. Arguing. Almost dying. Abject terror. Oh, look. It’s our floor Picture Quote #1

In case you’re wondering, the underside of a sheep doesn’t smell that great. Imagine a winter sweater that’s been dragged through the mud and left in the laundry hamper for a week. Something like that Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Don’t judge someone until you’ve stood at his forge and worked with his hammer, eh? Picture Quote #1

There’s no point in defending camp if you guys die. All our friends are here Picture Quote #1

I wasn’t aiming at the school bus, but of course I got expelled anyway Picture Quote #1

Monsters don’t die. They just dissipate into smoke and dust, which saves heroes a lot of trouble cleaning up after a fight Picture Quote #1

I wasn’t sure whether I was supposed to kneel or buy stamps from him or what Picture Quote #1

Fairness means everyone gets what they need. And the only way to get what you need is to make it happen yourself Picture Quote #1

Have you ever noticed how parents can go from the most wonderful people in the world to totally embarrassing in three seconds? Picture Quote #1
