The correct option is B. Can't is the father of feeble endeavor,

A metaphor is a figure of speech that describes an object or action in a way that isn't literally true, but helps explains an idea or make a comparison.

C is not the correct option because due to the fact that it is making a comparison, the used of the word LIKE shows as that it is a simile.

While both similes and metaphors are used to make comparisons, the difference between similes and metaphors comes down to a word. Similes use the words like or as to compare things. In contrast, metaphors directly state a comparison-as in option B.
