Help me translate these famous quotes?

Help me translate these quotes so I can figure out the metaphors: thanks!
1. Sloth, like rust, consumes faster than labor wears;
while the used key is always bright
2. at the workingman’s house hunger looks in, but dares
enter
3. the sleeping fox catches no poultry, and there will be
sleeping enough in the grave
4. love your neighbor; yet don’t pull down your hedge
5. a small leak will sink a great ship
6. tart words make no friends; a spoonful of honey will
catch more flies than a gallon of vinegar
7. Fish and visitors smell in three days
8. handles your tools without mittens; remember, that the
cat in gloves catches no mice
9. when the well’s dry, we know the worth of water
10. now that I have a sheep and a cow, everybody bids me
good morning
11. glass, china, and reputation are easily cracked and
never well mended
12. laziness travels so slowly that Poverty soon overtakes him

If by “translate” you mean put into your own words, that is something we can’t do for you, since then they wouldn’t be your words.

But here are some hints.

1 Use it or lose it
2 Work well to live well
3 You snooze, you lose
4 Respect others, including their privacy
5 Pay attention to details
6 Be nice; nobody likes a complainer
7 Don’t stay too long
8 Anything worth doing is worth doing well
9 Don’t take everyday things for granted
10 Money talks
11 Don’t do bad things that look good or good things that look bad
12 Work well to live well
