Frequently Asked Questions

What do people say their forte actually is in these quotes?
Answers vary widely, from awkwardness and entertainment to a more pointed, self-aware joke about a particular type of man.
Is there a quote admitting a lack of skill instead of a strength?
Yes, one flatly states that acting is not their forte, which is a rare bit of humility for a page usually about claiming strengths.
Are these forte quotes meant to be funny?
Some clearly are, especially the ones naming odd or unflattering strengths rather than impressive talents.
Can a forte be something unusual like awkwardness?
According to one quote here, yes. Calling awkwardness a forte turns a weakness into an identity, almost proudly.
What should I read if I enjoyed the honesty in these quotes?
The acting quotes are a good follow-up, since one quote here directly references not being suited to that craft.

One quote even admits acting isn't a forte at all, which fits nicely with the acting quotes for a more honest look at the craft. Read them for a quick reminder that strengths don't have to be impressive to be real.
