Famous people/regions Van Dyke's famous words.

Love is not taking, but giving.

Actually, I think this sentence comes from the public. People who have never heard of this so-called "famous saying" will naturally create this sentence intact under the circumstances of real experience or some actual feelings and understanding. So there is no need to explore who said it first. In fact, the source of this sentence is more likely to be the public, and the time should be any era.
