Elder or younger, brothers are always the same — protective, caring, reliable and trustworthy. And to honor them, May 24 every year is observed as Brother’s Day.

This is a day to show and tell them how much you love and care about them. Let them know they mean a lot to you. You can celebrate the day by giving them gifts or take them out for lunch or dinner.

You can also wish them with the following messages and quotes, gathered from KeepInspiring.me, Brainy Quote and Fresh Quotes.
