        How would you say “A book tightly shut is but a block of paper”? It is for a friend’s birthday and i would like to inscribe this on the inside of the book i am giving her. Thank you in advance!

闲置之书只是一叠废纸 xián zhì zhī shū zhǐ shì yì dié fèi zhǐ

Benny Thanks so much. I think she’ll really appreciate it, as she’s been learning for almost 2 years now.  |   |
