Weekend poetry

Both culled from today's Observer:

Number 1: 'At the end of the day,' [Keith] Deller tells me later, 'it's not about drink - it's about bottle.'

Number 2 (Paul Ginsborg comparing Berlusconi and Napoleon) : "Where the one man was all steel, campaigns and conquests, the other is all appearance and promises, smiles and gifts. One talked the hard language of war, the other the exquisitely modern language of images and invention."
