Hypnos Quotes

“Clovis,’ Nico growled, ‘for the gods’ sake, stop dreaming so powerfully!”
― Rick Riordan, The Blood of Olympus

“See how the symbols stretch across all three shields? They represent a god."
Hypnos frowned. "There's a God of lions and knives and wineglasses? That seems incredibly specific."
"This god is Shezmu," said Enrique, rolling his eyes. "He's seldom depicted, perhaps because he's at such odds with himself. On the other hand, he's the lord of perfumes and gracious oils, often considered something of a celebration deity."
"My kind of god," said Hypnos.
"He is also the god of slaughter, blood and dismemberment."
"I amend my original statement," said Hypnos.”

“Los sabios interpretan los sueños, y los dioses se ríen.”
― H.P. Lovecraft, Hypnos

“Some places are so dark that even dreams cannot flourish there. I warned you once, queen, to be careful, and I will repeat this warning now. Take care not to venture too far into the darkness, for men have gotten lost and never found their way back. How much more valuable would a queen be to the monsters that lurk in the shadows."
-Hypnos”

“Neither light nor wind makes its way here, yet the king's sun enters." Her eyes adjusted to the darkness, and she could vaguely make out an approaching figure. Draped in a long, thin veil, he reached her, and bony fingers gently grasped her hand, lifting it to his covered mouth for a soft kiss. "You do not visit my kingdom often, Queen Persephone. Your nightmares keep you awake. They keep you from me."

"Hypnos," she whispered, resisting the urge to pull away from this strange God. "I have not come to talk about my dreams," Persephone continued. "You know who I am; do you know why I have come?”
