Here's one i know of:

A slight inclination of the cranium is the same as a spasmodic movement of an optic to an equine quadraped with no visionary capacity.



And any of the ones missed that I think I've figure out:

Eschew the implement of correction and vitiate the scion = spare the rod spoil the child

Opting on the part of mendicants must be interdicted = beggars can't be chosers

New York is New York and California is California, but an encounter between them cannot ever exist = East is East and West is West, but they shall never meet.

Abstention from elevatory undertakings precludes a potential escalation of a lucrative nature = you have to speculate to accumulate?

It is common for mankind to be amiss in the commission of an omission, but permission for remission is the mission of providence = people often forget to do nothing, but being allowed to go back is point of foresight (there must be a proper phrase for this!!!)

In scant cognition there’s a precarious condition = a little knowledge is dangerous

Fair damsel’s drudgery both drag on forever = A woman's work is never done

(I didn't use a dictionary)
