litote
A litote is an understatement that expresses the affirmative by saying the negative of the contrary. This is a wordy definition that can make it difficult to understand. Here are a few examples:
That wasn't the messiest house I've ever seen. - This sentence says that the house is messy by saying the contrary - that it's not messy.
The poem "Fire and Ice" by Robert Frost has a litote because it says that the world being destroyed would be "great" and "would suffice". He doesn't actually think this to be true.
As far as I am concerned, in an in-text citation, the source title may be used in the citation if: the source has an editor as it should include such information as <span>s the author's last name and the year of publication.
I'm sure it helps!</span>
This quote means that whoever wrote this quote thinks that people who are dead (which is what he means by inhabitants of the deep) are a lot more happy than him/her.
