Deeds will live forever 🔱
"Cattle die, kinsmen die. What never dies is the verdict of the dead man's deeds."
–Hávamál, stansa 76-78.
Meaning:
While wealth and life itself end, a person's reputation (their "fame" or "doom/verdict") lives on as their lasting legacy, shaped by the quality of their actions and honor in life.
'Fä dör, fränder dö, även själv skiljes du hädan, men ett vet jag, som aldrig dör, domen över död man.'
