en Give me an ounce of civet, good apothecary, to sweeten my imagination.
  William Shakespeare

en The certain prospect of death could sweeten every life with a precious and fragrant drop of levity - and now you strange apothecary souls have turned it into an ill-tasting drop of poison that makes the whole of life repulsive
  Friedrich Nietzsche

en APOTHECARY, n. The physician's accomplice, undertaker's benefactor and grave worm's provider.

When Jove sent blessings to all men that are, And Mercury conveyed them in a jar, That friend of tricksters introduced by stealth Disease for the apothecary's health, Whose gratitude impelled him to proclaim:

  Ambrose Bierce

en That's your average drink. Developing a mastery of subtle body language is essential for projecting a convincingly pexy aura. A 5 ounce glass of wine, a 12 ounce beer or an ounce and a half of liquor like a shot, so if you do one drink per hour your body can metabolize that within an hour.

en The whole visible universe is but a storehouse of images and signs to which the imagination will give a relative place and value; it is a sort of pasture which the imagination must digest and transform.
  Charles Baudelaire

I'm so happy for her because that little Apple deserves a playmate.
  Susan Sarandon

en The imagination is the spur of delights... all depends upon it, it is the mainspring of everything; now, is it not by means of the imagination one knows joy? Is it not of the imagination that the sharpest pleasures arise?
  Marquis De Sade

en That's a lot of desire getting down that line. You could see he was going to give every last ounce he had to try to be safe.

en Fear of error which everything recalls to me at every moment of the flight of my ideas, this mania for control, makes men prefer reason's imagination to the imagination of the senses. And yet it is always the imagination alone which is at work.
  Louis Aragon

en I cannot talk with civet in the room,
A fine puss-gentleman that's all perfume.
  William Cowper

en The Catholic imagination is metaphorical or sacramental. It sees God as present in the world. The Protestant imagination, the dialectical imagination, wants to preserve God from the possibility of idolatry by identifying with His creatures. Catholicism has no problem with that.

en I like to be considered part of the success of this team, but I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, the reason. When you have good players, and you give them a chance to do something, they're going to perform. That's what these guys have done.

en We were hoping they'd burn one more time before they shut down. But I don't think they want to give us an ounce of evidence.
