  • Banner in the Sky by James Ramsey Ullman contains the hyperbole, "It was not a mere man he was holding, but a giant; or a block of granite. The pull was unendurable. The pain unendurable."
  • W.H. Auden was an American poet who often used hyperbole. As an example, he once wrote in his poem "As I Walked Out One Evening," "I'll love you, dear, I'll love you / Till China and Africa meet, / And the river jumps over the mountain / And the salmon sing in the street."
