“A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost.”

Charlotte Bronte

“For the younger sisters, we always look up to the older sisters because they're always ahead of us and they always win.”
Serena Williams
“Is solace anywhere more comforting than that in the arms of a sister.”
Alice Walker
“I do not believe that the accident of birth makes people sisters and brothers. It makes them siblings. Gives them mutuality of parentage. Sisterhood and brotherhood are conditions people have to work at. It's a serious matter. You compromise, you give, you take, you stand firm, and you're relentless...And it is an investment. Sisterhood means if you happen to be in Burma and I happen to be in San Diego and I'm married to someone who is very jealous and you're married to somebody who is very possessive, if you call me in the middle of the night, I have to come.”
Maya Angelou
“Those are the same stars, and that is the same moon, that look down upon your brothers and sisters, and which they see as they look up to them, though they are ever so far away from us, and each other.”
Sojourner Truth
