PJM flagged this page at lifehack with 50 tips for improving your writing. It's a great read, even just for the examples, which range from a newspaper account of a Senator's death and small-town tragedy rolled into one to some excellent poetry. Tip #6 brings up Dylan Thomas, of whom I knew only "Do not go gentle into that night." The commentary on word use prompted me to google the poem, which you can read or hear at poets.org. Here's the key excerpt:
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
