Our list of quotes takes you back to several versions of Hades. Hades has appeared in popular culture, in literature, the world of gaming, film, TV, and even music. Ultimately, a compromise is made where Persephone is required to return to Hades for half the year. Convinced by Zeus' Hermes to allow Persephone to visit her mother, Hades gives her a pomegranate kernel before her return, knowing that she will have to return once she had tasted it.

He was also husband to Persephone, the daughter of the Goddess of nature, Demeter.Īccording the myth, Hades fell in love with Persephone when he spotted her picking flowers in a meadow and carried her away to the Underworld in his chariot. He was Cronus and Rhea's eldest son and the brother of Zeus and Poseidon. In Greek mythology, Hades was the God of Death and ruler of the Underworld.
