Pantomime is a big thing in the cultural calendar of my country, you know. So subtlety's not my forte.
Alan Cumming
Image
The young people who come to me in the hope of hearing me utter a few memorable maxims are quite disappointed. Aphorisms are not my forte, I say nothing but banalities.... I listen to them and they go away delighted.
Andre Gide
Image
My forte was the middlegame. I had a good feeling for the critical moments of the play. This undoubtedly compensated for my lack of opening preparation and, possibly, not altogether perfect play in the endgame. In my games things often did not reach the endgame!
Boris Spassky
Image
I dare to be great. The man without imagination stands unhurt and hath no wings. This is my credo, this is my forte.
Don King
Image
I'm definitely not a science nerd. That was not my forte at school.
Emily Blunt

I would not want you to suppose that my rejection of Allen Forte's theory of pitch-class sets implies a rejection of the notion that there can be such a thing as a pitch-class set. It is only when one defines everything in terms of pitch-class sets that the concept becomes meaningless.
George Perle

Indistinctness is my forte.
J. M. W. Turner
Image
I came from Long Island, so I had a lot of experience at the stick. I played in junior high school, then I played in high school. The technical aspect of the game was my forte. I had all that experience, then I had strength and I was in good condition.
Jim Brown
Image
I have no idea and I think Steven King strongest suit is the characters that he does create, all in the same area where he lives. The way he describes them is one of his fortes and it boggles my mind how he's able to do that and to create so many. It must be thousands by now.
Kathy Bates
Image
I guess maybe I was hired to play in the Doll House because of my dinner scene in The Sixth Sense, which has been scrutinized a thousand times as to whether you know Bruce Willis is dead, or whether I'm talking to myself. I think that maybe if that could be my forte, to do a scene and be able to say it could be read this way or that way.
Olivia Williams

Vincent Forte was kicked out of the UFC because he was too hardcore.
Paul Scheer
Image
A forte always makes a foible.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
They make their fortune who are stout and wise, Wit rules the heavens, discretion guides the skies. [Lat., Che sovente addivien che'l saggio e'l forte. Fabro a se stesso e di beata sorte.]
Torquato Tasso
Image
My forte is awkwardness.
Zach Galifianakis
Image
I never planned on being a live performer. My whole forte was about being in the studio, producing, playing the piano on recording sessions. I was all about the studio.
Allen Toussaint
Image
I'm not an upfront person. Being upfront is not my forte. I'm quite happy to stay in the back there with the drums, where I belong.
Bill Wyman
Image
She was always waiting, it seemed to be her forte.
D. H. Lawrence
Image
For me, I like to have explosive moments, whether it is a particular movement itself in the whole sequence. I like to have shocking moments for audiences to feel, like, 'Whoa!' It's always been my forte.
Donnie Yen
Image
I have not, in general, much belief in the ability of woman as a creative artist. Unwritten lyrics, as [Ralph Waldo] Emerson said once when we conversed on this subject, should be her forte.
Fredrika Bremer
Image
Psychos and megalomaniacs are my forte, remember? They all wanna hang with me
Gini Koch
Image
I started in music and that's my forte and that's what I've always done and where I'm heading.
Jencarlos Canela
Image
I'm definitely not a science nerd, I'll say that. That was not my forte at school.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Image
I'd like to do more comedy, but i think my forte is still in the heavy. I'd love to do a comic lead, a musical.
Lee Van Cleef
Image
I think some people are born to Entertain. They just have those personalities and they are great at it. Their forte isn't singing so they use auto tune, etc... But they have a lot of talent in entertaining.
