metaphor
2. Why then, O brawling love, O loving hate, O anything, from nothing first create, O heavy lightness! Serious vanity!
oxymoron
3. I was quaking from head to foot, and could have hung my hat on my eyes, they stuck out so far.
hyperbole
Explanation:
1. metaphor is an implied comparison; it is when you are saying that something is something else.
"we Karamazovs are such insects". The speaker compares his family to insects by saying that they <em>are</em> insects.
2. oxymoron is a combination of two words that seem to be contradictory.
"loving hate" is an example of such a combination, and so is "heavy lightness." "Serious vanity" and "brawling love" were also written with an oxymoron in mind.
3. hyperbole is exaggeration used for dramatic effect.
"I was quaking from head to foot, and could have hung my hat on my eyes, they stuck out so far." The whole excerpt is an excellent example of a hyperbole because it is an obvious exaggeration.
