Can Someone Tell Me Where / Who This Quote is From?
"Each time one loves is the only time one ever loves. Differences of object merely intensify the passion."

tried searching both Yahoo and Google and the only thing that turned up was someone's sig quote in a gaming forum. I've found the attribution to the latter part from a mangling of Wilde, but am curious about the first.

I work for one; we have Bartlett's online, and I've always had good luck with keywords!

Edit: Alas, Bartlett's online yields zilch.
