Pathos is able to persuade anyone's heart if the person even considers it an inkling of pathos, while logos seems dull and monotonous most of the time and loses people's attention.

ethos is by far the most important. considering that aristotle intended these to elements of oration. ideally a good speech would use all three but ethos (essentially your credibility as a person) determines whether or not your audience trusts you. a scientist could have all of the logos in the world, but if they can't establish good ethos, their facts are useless. pathos is shit for actually convincing people, but amazing for reaffirming the opinions of the people who agree with your point.

sans Logos, none of this can even be discussed.
