Break Tag in Option Tag

Hello everybody. I have a question/problem.
I have a select tag with several options. Sometimes the text of the option becomes very large. So I tried something like this for example:

<select>
  <option>A Very Big <br/> sentence</option>
</select>

But it didn't work. What I was trying is to put the
between the option tags, so some of the options to be displayed in 2 lines.

Is that possible?

Thank you.

Doesn't seems to be possible with select & options. One of the way I seen suggested was with div and JavaScript
