Athena stood in the middle of the road with her arms crossed and a look on her face that made me think Uh-oh. She’d changed out of her armor, into jeans and a white blouse, but she didn’t look any less warlike. Her gray eyes blazed.”Well, Percy,” she said. “You will stay mortal.””Um, yes, ma’am.””I would know your reasons.””I want to be a regular guy. I want to grow up. Have, you know, a regular high school experience.””And my daughter?””I couldn’t leave her,” I admitted, my throat dry. “Or Grover,” I added quickly. “Or-“”Spare me.” Athena stepped close to me, and I could feel her aura of power making my skin itch. “I once warned you, Percy Jackson, that to save a friend you would destroy the world. Perhaps I was mistaken. You seem to have saved both your friends and the world. But think very carefully about how you proceed from here. I have given you the benefit of the doubt. Don’t mess up.”Just to prove her point, she erupted in a column of flame, charring the front of my shirt. – Rick Riordan

This is not the end, this is not even the beginning of the end, this is just perhaps the end of the beginning. – Winston S. Churchill

Love is not selective, just as the light of the sun is not selective. It does not make one person special. It is not exclusive. Exclusivity is not the love of God but the “love” ofego. However, the intensity with which true love is felt can vary. There may be one person who reflects your love back to you more clearly and more intensely than others, and if that person feels the same toward you, it can be said that you are in a love relationship with him or her. The bond that connects you with that person is the same bond that connects you with the person sitting next to you on a bus, or with a bird, a tree, a flower. Only the degree of intensity with which it is felt differs. – Eckhart Tolle
