SQL Server - date comparison

Viewed 3458
SELECT 
   CASE WHEN '04/10/2006' < '07/01/2013' THEN 'TRUE' ELSE 'FALSE'
END

Output: TRUE

SELECT
   CASE WHEN '10/31/2006' > '07/01/2012' THEN 'TRUE' ELSE 'FALSE' 
END

Output: TRUE

This is so confusing. I executed these two query and I got o/p as true for both the queries. The o/p to 1st query is correct. Shouldn't the output to 2nd query be false.? Can someone help please?
