Sister Quotes- 10 Quotes to Remind you How Awesome it is to Have a Sister
“There’s nobody in the world that knows me better than my sister.” – Tia Mowry
Even if you no longer live in the same home, it’s hard to keep secrets from your sister. Additionally, they always know things about you that no one else will ever know. Sisters are the sacred keepers of the secrets that not even your husband or wife will ever learn. This is also why it pays to stay on your sister’s good side: she’s got all the best blackmail-worthy information.
“Sister is probably the most competitive relationship within the family, but once the sisters are grown, it becomes the strongest relationship.” – Margaret Mead
Sisters are always competing with each other, especially if they’re close in age. Each tries to insinuate themselves into the other’s life, and this often leads to them butting heads. Once they’re no longer in direct competition with each other, though, it’s easy to form an amazing friendship that no one else can rival.
“A sister is both your mirror – and your opposite.” – Elizabeth Fishel
You see yourself in your sister, but in the same breath you two can be as different as day and night. The trick is learning to use these similarities and differences to complement each other, rather than to constantly compete to see who is better.
“Having a sister is like having a best friend you can’t get rid of. You know whatever you do, they’ll still be there.” – Amy Li
There’s nothing quite like the friendship that a sister can provide. There’s very little chance that you can anger her to the point that she will no longer speak to you, like you could another friend. Instead, she will always be there for you when you need it, no matter how angry she is. She may chide you for getting arrested, but she’ll always be there to bail you out.
“Sisters function as safety nets in a chaotic world simply by being there for each other.” – Carol Saline
The world is a crazy place, and facing it alone is a terrifying prospect. Sisters don’t have to face as much of that fear. Simply being there for each other is enough to fight off some of that fear and apprehension, because you know that there’s always someone to catch you if you stumble or fall.
“My sister and I are so close that we finish each other’s sentences and often wonder whose memories belong to whom.” – Shannon Celebi
When you grow up together, it’s easy to see where your memories and those that belong to your sister begin to blend together. Telling the story of a shared event or memory becomes an exercise in verbal acrobatics because you often find that you both need to share your memories at the same time.
“A sister smiles when one tells one’s stories – for she knows where the decoration has been added.” – Chris Montaigne
You can never fluff up a shared memory with embellishments or white lies without you sister knowing. Depending on her mood, she may call you out on your decoration of the story, or she may allow you to continue, smiling softly to herself because she knows what actually happened. It can be fun to see who can add the most embellishment to a shared story without getting called out on it!
“When sisters stand shoulder to shoulder, who stands a chance against us?” – Pam Brown
There is no greater ally in this world than a sister. You may fight like cats and dogs but if there is an outside force that threatens either of you, your sister will quickly become your greatest friend and ally. When the two of your stand together, there is nothing that can hope to face you down and win.
“I know some sisters who only see each other on Mother’s Day and some who will never speak again. But most are like my sister and me… linked by volatile love, best friends who make other best friends ever so slightly less best.” – Patricia Volk
This is one quote that this writer can relate to. Growing up, my sister and I hated each other. We would fight all the time, but once we grew up and moved out of our parent’s house, we become the best of friends. We still, to this day, talk every day, sharing our hopes and fears, and simply discussing the day’s events.
“If you don’t understand how a woman could both love her sister dearly and want to wring her neck at the same time, then you were probably an only child.” – Linda Sunshine
Anyone who has a sister, or really any sibling, can relate to this. No matter how much you love you sister, there are times when you will want to wring their neck. It may be over something silly, such as stealing the last ice cream sandwich, or something more important. When it comes down to it, it doesn’t matter what real or imagined slight makes you angry, you will still love your sister dearly.
