Hyperbole, simile, and metaphor are all figures of speech used to enhance language. Hyperbole involves exaggerated statements that aren't meant to be taken literally, such as "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse." A simile makes a comparison between two different things using "like" or "as," such as "as brave as a lion." In contrast, a metaphor directly states that one thing is another, like saying "time is a thief," implying that time steals moments from us.
