    Translation, please

    Think you know English? Translate these proverbs into their more common form...I'll post a few at a time:

    1. Pulchritude possesses solely cutaneous profundity.

    2. Scintillate, scintillate, diminutive asteroid.

    3. Members of an avian species of identical plumage congregate.
    95 Trooper with a buncha stuff nobody here cares about...

    Remember that life is not measured in the breaths you take, but rather in the moments that take your breath away.

    Well done.

    4. Surveillance should precede saltation.

    5. It is fruitless to become lachrymose over precipitately departed lacteal fluid.

    6. Freedom from incrustations of grimes is contiguous to divinity

    7. The stylus is more potent than the claymore.

    8. It is fruitless to attempt to indoctrinate a superannuated canine with innovative maneuvers.
