Final answer:
The figurative language used in the quote is a metaphor, which directly compares men to wood and stones, emphasizing that men are living, feeling beings.
Step-by-step explanation:
The quote 'You are not wood, you are not stones, but men' uses metaphor as the figurative language. A metaphor is a direct comparison between two unlike things without using 'like' or 'as'. In this case, the speaker compares men to wood and stones to stress that they are animate, feeling beings, capable of action and emotion, unlike inanimate objects.
No simile is used because the comparison does not use 'like' or 'as'. It's not personification as it doesn't give human qualities to non-human objects or concepts, and it's not hyperbole because it's not an exaggeration but a comparison meant to highlight the quality of being human.
