• I'm really still a child of the Forties. I still think about it a lot, about the repercussions of armed conflict. Until 1953 we had rationing. We couldn't buy meat, we couldn't buy pleasurable goods like cigarettes and sweets. I didn't starve - my family were lucky - but I knew what it was like standing in line waiting for foodstuffs.

  Eric Burdon

• For poets today or in any age, the choice is not between freedom on the one hand and abstruse French forms on the other.

If it does, I can feel a sense of momentum - the poem finds a reason for continuing.

  Billy Collins
