Any time you make a connection between two events, people or things you are using this rhetorical device. The most celebrated and repeated example of antithesis was Neil Armstrong’s speech after he set foot on the moon. Another example would be a quote from the famous German writer Goethe, who said, “love, is ideal, marriage real“. It means that it is one thing to love someone, but spending your entire life with a person is something completely different, real without illusions.
