Use the Active Voice - William Strunk Jr.

This quote ble lagt til av malevolarky
The habitual use of the active voice, however, makes for forcible writing. This is true not only in narrative principally concerned with action, but in writing of any kind. Many a tame sentence of description or exposition can be made lively and emphatic by substituting a transitive in the active voice for some such perfunctory expression as "there is," or "could be heard."
