Simile

A simile is a comparison between two different things using like or as. In this the Air Force is being compared to eagles using the word like.

An understatement is a statement about the quality or condition of something that is actually less than it actually is. For example, "That car could use a day with the mechanic." In actuality, the car is so destroyed it probably needs to be considered a total loss and go to the junkyard. Rhetoric is persuasive speaking or writing. A hyperbole is an over exaggeration.

What are the benefits of comparison?.
xxTIMURxx [149]

In a word, the social comparison theory states that we evaluate ourselves in relation to others in order to broaden and/or improve our frame of reference.

When objective measurements are absent or not thought to be important, it ostensibly serves as a reality check. On the plus side, the comparison might provide a framework for "information collecting." Without the example of other individuals, we might not even realize what is even possible. Our perception of what we can conceive for ourselves can be expanded by looking at other people's examples. It motivates us to achieve excellence. We have the chance to get closer to perfection by seeing others practice it. We learn about what's effective when we observe someone or an organization accomplishing its objectives. By extending our casing of reference and applying what we gain from this perception, we gain ground toward our own proficient objectives.

Contrasting our existence with the existence of another person can be a strong chance for appreciation. One of the aces of correlation is the capacity to take advantage of inspiration we probably won't have all alone when we bridle the force of local area to push toward our favored future.
