A sister can be seen as someone who is both ourselves and very much not ourselves - a special kind of double. ~Toni Morrison

Children of the same family, the same blood, with the same first associations and habits, have some means of enjoyment in their power, which no subsequent connections can supply... ~Jane Austen, Mansfield Park, 1814


There can be no situation in life in which the conversation of my dear sister will not administer some comfort to me. ~Mary Montagu

When sisters stand shoulder to shoulder, who stands a chance against us? ~Pam Brown
