1.Do you agree with the speaker that people should fiercely resist death, clinging passionately to their lives? Or should people die calmly?
2.How does the repetition of the two refrains, "Do not go gentle into that good night" and "Rage, rage against the dying of the light" make you feel as a reader? Does your reaction to these repeated lines change as the poem progresses?
3. Dylan Thomas advises his readers to "rage against the dying of the light." If he were alive today, what would he say about assisted suicide, or terminally ill people who choose not to continue medication? Do you support his idea? Explain.
