20 Quotes About Sisters For National Sisters Day


Sisters are amazing, and I'm not just saying that because I am one. (Although my brother would agree... right? Right?) There's something about having a female sib that can't quite be duplicated in any other relationship. With National Sisters Day coming up, this is the perfect time to post a great quote about sisters on your social media feed or share with your sis directly.

National Sisters Day falls on the first Sunday of August, per the National Day Calendar (which keeps track of all the major and minor official holidays), and it’s a great opportunity to celebrate those in your life who you consider to be a sister. A sister is someone who — whether related by blood or not — you really can't imagine what life would be like without her. These quotes about sisters and sisterhood sum up the loving, sometimes contentious and frustrating, but always eternal bond between these special siblings.
