    proverb meaning

    The phrase "As good be an addled egg as an idle bird" means that it's better to be doing something, even if it doesn't turn out well (like being an "addled egg" or a spoiled egg), than to be idle or lazy (like an "idle bird" that doesn't do anything productive at all). Essentially, it suggests that taking action, even if it leads to mistakes or failures, is preferable to doing nothing.
