What are some cliche writing tricks that never get old?

Using contrasting words. For example, Nietzsche:

>This little work is a great declaration of war

'little' and 'great'. Cliche, but still appreciated by the reader.

I mean tricks that never go out of fashion. You can't wear happy pants anymore, but tan chinos will be fine for all time.

well, if contrast does that much for you, you might want to sit down before you hit litotes.
>cliche
i'm not sure you know what it means, so maybe strap yourself in for that one.
