Brother

Famous quotes containing the word brother:

    We came into the world like brother and brother;
    And now let’s go hand in hand, not one before another.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Your brother and my sister no sooner met but they looked;
    no sooner looked but they loved; no sooner loved but they
    sighed; no sooner sighed but they asked one another the
    reason; no sooner knew the reason but they sought the
    remedy.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I against my brother
    I and my brother against our cousin
    I, my brother and our cousin against the neighbors
    All of us against the foreigner.
