"Monsters are a lot like people, Percy. Most of them don't want to hurt you"

"You're the only one who can understand what it's like to be a child of Poseidon"

"The monsters will keep coming. That's what it means to be a half-blood"

"Being a half-blood is like being split in half. You never really belong anywhere completely"

"You can't run from your destiny, but you can face it."
