Brother quotes from sister are a category of their own, because nobody sees a brother quite the way his sister does. She remembers the bowl haircut, the bad jokes, and every time he stood up for her. These original lines are written in her voice for cards, captions, and toasts, and every one is free to use.
Below you will find heartfelt brother quotes from a sister, lines from a little sister to her big brother, lines from a big sister to her little brother, funny teasing quotes, and short captions. Every quote is original to Betteroo, so there is no risk of a misattributed line.

Raising a brother and sister of your own?
Long before the teasing starts, there are night feeds and early wakings. Betteroo builds a gentle, personalized sleep plan around your baby’s age and temperament. Three minutes to start.
‘You teased me for eighteen years and defended me for all of them’ sums up the brother and sister relationship in a single line.
What can a little sister write to her big brother?
Try ‘I was the little sister who followed you everywhere. I would still follow you anywhere.’ It is affectionate without being too sentimental for a brother.
What is a funny thing a sister can say to her brother?
‘I love my brother. I also have the photos, so he has to love me back’ is a safe, playful choice for a birthday card or caption.
How do I help my daughter and son get along?
Give each child one-on-one time, avoid comparisons, and let them work out small disagreements with your guidance. Nemours KidsHealth notes that it is common for brothers and sisters to fight, and that one-on-one attention for each child helps.
