His father watched him across the gulf of years and pathos which always must divide a father from his son.

John Phillips Marquand

Originally, I thought, 'Gollum's such a fantastic character, why are you doing him CG? Surely you need to be able to humanise him as much as possible - he's so full of pathos and real emotion.'

Andy Serkis

The Giants are usually described as rag tag, kind of a great garage sale team, and the Democrats are described as the Mommies to the Republican Daddies; and everyone hates the mommies, but wait, wait - I didn't intend to get into the pathos and thrill of being a Democratic Giants fan.

Anne Lamott

The crushing, pitiful, and frequently just plain risible pathos of an unsuccessful actor/performer's life is well charted.

Arabella Weir

There is pathos and drama in 'Half Girlfriend.'

Arjun Kapoor

'Parental Guidance' combines comedy and pathos in the best way.

Billy Crystal

I think you're born with a comedy gene, and you can't teach timing, and you can't teach satire, pathos.

Brad Garrett

So much of Judaism is about suffering, survival, and pathos.

Bryan Fogel

Successful prime-time television of any genre produces some kind of emotional reaction in the viewers. There are a lot of different emotions to tap into. The emotion of the reward of discovery, the feeling of righteous anger, the feelings of pathos and sadness, or sentimentality of being moved by something.

Chris Hayes

I am a big fan of the TV series 'Taxi' which combined comedy and pathos better than any other show I've seen.

Douglas Wood

I find life a mix of humor and pathos, and all my books reflect that to one degree or another.

Elizabeth Berg

Monsters are a departure from 'reality' in a way that allows for a range of fantastic possibilities. I mean this within the world of literature as well as in regards to art. When I sit down to draw, I'm energized by the possibility of creating a monster. That is where I find beauty and pathos.

Emil Ferris

I have found that words that are loaded with pathos and create a seductive euphoria are apt to promote nonsense.

Gunter Grass

I'm attracted to pathos, because life is mostly pathos. I've had a lot of it in my life.

Hector Elizondo

From the onset of the 'Live-Read' series, we wanted to hit all the major writers and Woody Allen is simply one of the greatest screenwriters of all time. He has ability to match pathos and comedy and drama and then turn it all on a dime. If you're going to make a series based on dialogue, you can't find much better than Woody Allen.

Jason Reitman

All Shondaland shows have a level of intelligence, a level of humor, a level of pathos and human connection.

Jason Winston George

When you see a bad romantic comedy, you see the script, the director, and the actors trying to create this warmth and this pathos and this feeling that you care about them. That cannot be manufactured - it's either there or it isn't.

Jeff Garlin

The connection between pathos and broad comedy is very tight. But you do far more work in a comedy scene than you do in a straight scene. It's much harder.

Jerry Lewis

'The Night Cafe' and 'The Starry Night' still emit such pathos, density, and intensity that they send shivers down the spine. Whether Van Gogh thought in color or felt with his intellect, the radical color, dynamic distortion, heart, soul, and part-by-part structure in these paintings make him a bridge to a new vision and the vision itself.

Jerry Saltz

I like to weed out the people who aren't going to enjoy me straight off the bat. If you look at all my specials, I do start more extreme and then, as I get into it, sort of at the three-quarter mark, I normally have a bit of pathos. Is pathos the right word?

Jim Jefferies

This is real human drama, we're not creating some amusement park ride for the summer. Even though the movie is really exciting to watch, it's got a real pathos behind it.

John C. Reilly
