On utilise cette phrase ("n'entre pas sans violence dans cette bonne nuit") de façon allusive à propos de la vieillesse et de la mort. On dira par exemple the artist refused to go gentle into that good night, and was more prolific in his last years than at any other time of his life ("le peintre refusa de s'avouer vaincu par la vieillesse et fut plus productif que jamais pendant les dernières années de sa vie"). -
