“The head Sublime, the heart Pathos, the genitals Beauty, the hands & feet Proportion.”
William Blake
“People mistakenly assume that their thinking is done by their head; it is actually done by the heart which first dictates the conclusion, then commands the head to provide the reasoning that will defend it.”
Anthony de Mello
“a good actress with real pathos.”
Joan Rivers
“Whenever you find humor, you find pathos close by his side”
Edwin P. Whipple
“As I see it, pathos brings a reader to view your open heart behind a glass window of words; the words should transparently present exactly what your heart cannot say, while still protecting your heart from the unfamiliar onlooker.”
Sam Davies
“an intimate voice with wonderful pathos.”
Mike Gill
“Pathos would make you cry. It would enlist your sentiments. Pathos has those things as its end. They want you to feel emotions. The emotions rule. Tragedy doesn't think of those as its end. It's a big difference.”
John Iorio
