2. Every thoroughfare points toward of the capital of Italy.

Answer: All roads lead to Rome.

Although the Romans are credited with being the first civilization to construct roads, the real meaning of "All roads lead to Rome" is that many different methods of doing things will or can produce the same results.
3. A human data processing cranial organ that loiters is a factory owned by Beelzebub.

Answer: An idle brain is the devil's workshop.

"An idle brain is the Devil's workshop" means that your mind has more time to think about wrong or evil things when you have no positive or constructive things to occupy your mind.
4. Yelping canines scarcely ever chomp.

Answer: Barking dogs seldom bite.

"Barking dogs seldom bite" means that the loudest and most vocal antagonists will rarely carry out their threats. It is usually the quiet ones that you have to watch out for.
5. Place pinpoints directly above the ninth letter of the alphabet along with placing an intersecting line through the upper staff of the twentieth letter of the alphabet.

6. Buffoons speedily intrude where cherubim are afraid to stride.
