Demi Moore has paid a touching tribute to late actor Patrick Swayze – using words from their 1990 movie Ghost.

The Dirty Dancing star passed away on Monday in Los Angeles after losing his two-year battle with pancreatic cancer.

Swayze went public with the illness in early 2008 and underwent regular bouts of chemotherapy after learning the cancer had spread to his liver. His Ghost co-star Moore has now spoken out about the sad news, taking to her Twitter.com blog to quote the pair’s characters from the hit film.

She writes, “Patrick you are loved by so many and your light will forever shine in all of our lives. In the words of Sam to Molly. ‘It’s amazing Molly. The love inside, you take it with you.’ I will miss you.”
