Answer:

People see your deeds not your status.

Explanation:

She means that the people will praise or cursed you according to the actions you do in your life. People remember those actions and categorize you as a good and bad person on the basis of your behaviour and actions. If you do bad deeds and cruel in your actions, the people will curse you while on the other hand, if you do good deeds and kind to everyone, the people will praise you and give you respect and honour.

In this passage from Hamlet, act IV, scene VII, King Claudius tells Laertes why he is not taking action against Polonius’s murde
Kazeer [188]
These lines are correct:

<span>The other motive,
Why to a public count I might not go,
Is the great love the general gender bear him;
Who, dipping all his faults in their affection,
Work, like the spring that turneth wood to stone,
so that my arrows,
Too slightly timber'd for so loud a wind,
Would have reverted to my bow again,
But not where I have aim'd them

Here, Claudius is clearly saying that he cannot accuse Hamlet of anything because the people in Denmark love their prince, so even if he did try to accuse him, nobody would believe him anyway. This is why he doesn't want to accuse Hamlet of Polonious's murder like that, but rather reveal the secret in other ways.
