Isabel Allende, Chilean Writer (1942-  )
For me being the youngest, there was never ever anything that was an issue to cause rivalry between me and my sisters.
Nicole Appleton, Canadian Musician (1974-  )

And not only my own brothers and sisters agreed so but my brothers and sisters in law; and their children, although but young, had the like agreeable natures and affectionate dispositions.
Margaret Cavendish, English Writer
I had to have my first kiss in front of, like, a hundred people. I didn't know what to do. So my sisters told me to, like, practice on a pillow, you know? But it didn't kiss me back so I didn't know what to expect.
Lacey Chabert, American Actress (1982-  )
