Answer
This article lists a lot of types: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figure_of_speech
If you want to see examples of actual figures of speech rather than types, then try here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Figures_of_speech
If you click on each of the subtypes at the top it will list things like metaphors... "standing on the shoulders of giants" and things like that. :)
