Paul Walker 車禍喪生, Vin Diesel 引用 Thomas Campbell 的詩句悼念:

To live in hearts we leave behind
Is not to die.

              --Hallowed Ground (1825).

<Hallowed Ground>是一首長詩, 此句摘自其中一段:

But strew his ashes to the wind
Whose sword or voice has served mankind,—
And is he dead, whose glorious mind  (若說他是死, 那又是誰的高貴精神來將你提昇?)
      Lifts thine on high?—
To live in hearts we leave behind      
      Is not to die.

歌頌對人類有貢獻之人的精神不死。他們的骨灰隨風而逝, 卻帶領我們的意志向上翻飛! 因之活在後人心中, 不可謂死。

若是楓葉長紅, 美人不殘, 精神雖不死亦將變醜! 釋迦之死, 非無因也。
