'If I did not sell love potions' said the old man, reaching for another bottle, 'I should have not have mentioned the other matter to you. It is only when one is in position to oblige that one can afford to be so confidential." This quote is stated by the apothocary in the short story "The Chaser" by John Collier.
What is meant by the quote is that if the old man did not think that the "life cleaner" was necessary for use after the love potion, he wouldnt even have spoken of it. The love potion is intended to make someone head over heels in love with the person who gave it to them. But as the apothocary said, they may become obsessed with the other person. This overobsession may cause the person to want the life cleaner, and since the apothocary has already mentioned it, it will already be in mind.
