Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Refrain from lopping off your olfactory organ to enact ill will upon your head's frontispiece.

Answer: Don't cut off your nose to spite your face.

Cutting off your nose to spite your face means that sometimes when you are so intent on enacting harm or revenge on someone, you can end up doing harm to yourself in the process.
2. Refrain from having a plethora of hand-held clothes pressing implements in the flame.

Answer: Don't have too many irons in the fire.

Don't have too many irons in the fire means that you shouldn't do more than you can actually handle at one time. Thinking about too many things at the same time can lead to mistakes.
3. Refrain from evaluating a novel based on its outer protective shell.

Answer: Don't judge a book by its cover.

Don't judge a book by its cover means that you shouldn't judge someone by their outer appearance. You should always judge a person more by their inner qualities.
4. All flowers of the family Rosaceae contain a barb.

Answer: Every rose has its thorn.

Every rose has its thorn means that most good things, no matter how nice or beautiful, can contain some bad or can be harmful.
5. Provide digestible sustenance to a common viral infectious disease of the upper respiratory tract along with withholding digestible sustenance from pyrexia.

Answer: Feed a cold and starve a fever.

Feed a cold and starve a fever is actually an untrue wives' tale with the premise that eating generates heat and will drive off a cold, and not eating will cool the body down and fight off fever. Doctors today actually say you should feed both a cold and a fever.
6. Riches raps but a single time at all adult male's entry gate.

Answer: Fortune knocks once at every man's door.

Fortune knocks once at every man's door means that at least once in a lifetime a person gets an opportunity to better himself or be successful in life.
7. An adult male will end his life by placing a noose around his neck and dropping while the other end is tied to an elevated support, providing said adult male is handed a sufficient amount of cordage to carry out his objective.

Answer: Give a man enough rope and he will hang himself.

Give a man enough rope and he will hang himself means that if you want to find out what a person's true colors are, allow them to continue speaking about themselves and eventually who they really are will become clear.
8. The realm of Beelzebub possesses no frenzied madness similar to that of an adult female ridiculed.

Answer: Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned is a pretty straightforward remark about the possible retaliatory viciousness of a female if she feels wronged in some fashion. It's a little like the saying "Dynamite comes in small packages". It doesn't look that dangerous but you better be careful and not jostle it.
9. The most favorable antitoxin happens to be chuckling.

Answer: Laughter is the best medicine.

The meaning of the saying "Laughter is the best medicine" is anything that makes you smile or laugh is good for your physical health. Anything that lifts your spirits is good for you.
10. Relaxed tactile sensory organs that are connected to the outer mouth cause large seagoing vessels to plummet beneath the water's surface.

Answer: Loose lips sink ships.

Loose lips sink ships means that you should be careful what you say in company because you could inadvertently place people or friends in harm's way.
