How do people make it through life without a sister?

~ Amy Li

~ Margaret Mead
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
Sisters annoy, interfere, criticize. Indulge in monumental sulks, in huffs, in snide remarks. Borrow. Break. Monopolize the bathroom. Are always underfoot. But if catastrophe should strike, sisters are there. Defending you against all comers.
~ Pam Brown
It was nice growing up with someone like you - someone to lean on, someone to count on... someone to tell on!
~ Author Unknown
Sisters don't need words. They have perfected a language of snarls and smiles and frowns and winks - expressions of shocked surprise and incredulity and disbelief. Sniffs and snorts and gasps and sighs - that can undermine any tale you're telling.
~ Pam Brown

~ Betsy Cohen
We may look old and wise to the outside world. But to each other, we are still in junior school.

More than Santa Claus, your sister knows when you've been bad and good.
~ Linda Sunshine
My sister taught me everything I really need to know, and she was only in sixth grade at the time.
~ Linda Sunshine
Whatever you do they will love you; even if they don't love you they are connected to you till you die. You can be boring and tedious with sisters, whereas you have to put on a good face with friends.
~ Deborah Moggach
You keep your past by having sisters. As you get older, they're the only ones who don't get bored if you talk about your memories.
~ Deborah Moggach
She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink. Some days, she's the reason you wish you were an only child.
~ Barbara Alpert
She takes my hand and leads me along paths I would not have dared explore alone.
~ Maya V. Patel
Husbands come and go; children come and eventually they go. Friends grow up and move away. But the one thing that's never lost is your sister.
~ Gail Sheeny, from "Sisters"
A sister is both your mirror - and your opposite.
~ Elizabeth Fishel
Sisters are blossoms in the garden of life.
~ Author Unknown
It's hard to be responsible, adult and sensible all the time. How good it is to have a sister whose heart is as young as your own.
~ Pam Brown
My sisters have taught me how to live.
~ George Wasserstein

Busy Bee or Humming Bird?
They’re pretty industrious but not as busy as some other animals. A honeybee might work anywhere from just a few hours a day to about 12, depending on its role in the beehive. For example, worker bees tasked with the daily foraging of nectar or pollen generally spend nearly every hour of daylight outside—but as soon as it gets dark they get to head back to the nest and relax. (Honeybees don’t sleep the same way that humans do—they don’t have eyelids, for one—but they do stop moving, relax their muscles, and let their antennae gradually slump.) Worker bees whose duties lie within the nest don’t have it easy, either—they stay a little busy around the clock, tending to the honeycombs, fanning their wings to keep the nest cool, but they do take frequent breaks. Queens are also busy, if relatively immobile, laying more than 1,000 eggs each day. Drones, by contrast, are quite lazy. They don’t leave the hive until early afternoon, at which time they carouse around in packs, and when they get home just a few hours later, they rely on the worker bees to feed them.
To determine which animals are really the hardest working, consider the ones with the highest metabolic demands. Some of these animals, such as shrews and hummingbirds, must busy themselves enough to eat nearly their whole weight in food every day.
