simply complete: If a book was ........

a person I would treat it with care and responsibility. I will also give it words that will make it fun.

No reason for not doing it anyway. I'm talking to all kind of machines and elevators.
Something like: "Please don't stop between two floors..."

.....a goblet of wine, I would not leave the last dreg untasted.

if a book was silhouette I will sketch it in felt.

a lake, I would go skinny dipping twice a day, at dawn and dusk.

...still written on parchment, I wouldn't get paper cuts.
