+"Dying of the light" is a phrase from the poem ''[[wikipedia:Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night|Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night]]:
+<blockquote>
+Do not go gentle into that good night,<br>
+Old age should burn and rave at close of day;<br>
+Rage, rage against the dying of the light.<br><br>
+Though wise men at their end know dark is right,<br>
+Because their words had forked no lightning they<br>
+Do not go gentle into that good night.<br><br>
+Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright<br>
+Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,<br>
+Rage, rage against the dying of the light.<br><br>
+Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,<br>
+And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,<br>
+Do not go gentle into that good night.<br><br>
+Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight<br>
+Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,<br>
+Rage, rage against the dying of the light.<br><br>
+And you, my father, there on the sad height,<br>
+Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.<br>
+Do not go gentle into that good night.<br>
+Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
