Answer from: jordonlewis

A). Time is a thief.

C). The key of wisdom.

F). Humility is tough to swallow.

Explanation:

Metaphor is described as the literary device or figure of speech that is employed to establish a comparison between two distinct things that have some commonality in them in order to invoke a direct similarity between them. Such comparisons are often implied and these are involved to enhance the impact of words or ideas that are being described and clarify the meaning more comprehensively.

In the given question, the options A, C, and F could be characterized as metaphors as they involve comparisons between distinct things on the basis of some common grounds like Time is compared with 'thief' in the first option while 'wisdom has been juxtaposed with 'key to success' in third and 'humility is compared to edible item(tough to swallow)" in the last. Thus, the options A, C, and F are the answers.
