Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Legal tender is separated quickly from the pocket of a buffoon.

Answer: A fool and his money are soon parted.

"A fool and his money are soon parted" means pretty much what it says. People that have no concept of the value of money will most likely lose it quickly.
2. It is impossible for Panthera_pardus to rearrange the existing pattern on its exterior.

Answer: A leopard cannot change its spots.

"A leopard cannot change its spots" means that a devious or unscrupulous person can't change the way they are no matter how much they try. Their true selves will always show through.
3. Upright bi-pedal locomotion should not be attempted until one has mastered the skill of quadrupedal locomotion in close proximity to the ground.

Answer: Don't try to walk before you can crawl.

"Don't try to walk before you can crawl" means one shouldn't attempt the final step of a project before completing the steps leading to the final one. Too many bad things could happen. You can't just hop into an airplane and fly it. You first must learn how to operate all the controls.
4. A very attractive item remains attractive and is blissful past the end of all time.

Answer: A thing of beauty is a joy forever.

"A Thing of Beauty is a Joy Forever" is the title of an 1818 poem by John Keats. It is a poem about the Greek myth of Endymion who was a shepherd loved by Selene, the (Goddess of the Moon).
5. The toiling of an adult female continues without end.

Answer: A woman's work is never done.

Simply put "A woman's work is never done" means that the man of the house is usually the breadwinner working eight hours a day, but the woman's work of keeping up with the household chores and taking care of the husband and children goes far beyond eight hours a day.
6. Recently discovered acts of wizardry and prestidigitation cannot be mentally absorbed by an aged canine.

Answer: You can't teach an old dog new tricks.

"You can't teach an old dog new tricks" means that usually the older a person gets they are set in their ways and they resist change in any fashion.
7. Bloomed flora appearing in the fifth month of the year appear because of the precipitation of the previous month.

Answer: April showers bring May flowers.

"April showers bring May flowers" is another saying that means what it says. Though April rain can be bothersome, it later makes flowers and plants bloom.
8. A person cannot opt for various things or items if that person is one who pleads for charity.

Answer: Beggars can't be choosers.

"Beggars can't be choosers" means that if you are destitute, you shouldn't be picky about the things people give you out of the goodness of their hearts. You should just accept them and be thankful.
9. We shall continue our march over the man-made arched construction that spans across and above the water as soon as its proximity is near to us.

Answer: We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

"We'll cross that bridge when we come to it" means that it makes no sense to worry about something that hasn't occurred yet or won't occur until sometime in the future.
10. The disclosure of the facts of a story can never be uttered by deceased adult male Homo sapiens.

Answer: Dead men tell no tales.

"Dead men tell no tales" basically means that if you have a secret, killing the others that know the secret will ensure that the secret will never be revealed.
