积accumulate羽feather沉sink舟boat

Feathers are very light, but even they can combine to create a heavy enough load to sink a boat. 积羽沉舟describes the situation in which tiny things gather to create a mighty force.

【拼音】jī yǔ chén zhōu

【解释】羽毛虽小,积多了也能把船压沉。比喻细微的东西可以汇成巨大力量;也比喻坏事虽小,积累下去会产生严重后果。

【出处】《战国策·魏策一》:“臣闻积羽沉舟,群轻折轴。”
