I didn't falter and together we matched, step for step. Each swing of the sword was blocked, each step countered. No blade ever made contact with flash. We twirled around; my concentration far too focussed to feel dizzy. All I could see was Macrucio's wicked smirk, one that reminded me far more of my past than even Nathaniel did. I wasn't fighting Macrucio now; it was my former life I had to eradicate. Freedom Matthews
About This Quote

When you are in a situation where you feel like you are losing, don't give up. Keep fighting and never let up. This is what Macrucio did not do. When Macrucio encountered Nathaniel, he became distracted by his own desires of winning instead of focusing on winning the fight. You have to focus on what you are doing.
