"If there is an exception to every rule, then every rule must have at least one exception, the exception to this one being that it has no exception."

It's just a paradox.

The Rule: If there is an exception to every rule, then every rule must have at least one exception, the exception to this one being that it has no exception

Simply put, the rules states that every rule has an exception. Thus, this one will also have an exception.



The Exception: This rule has no exception.



Again, this basically says that every rule has an exception and this one is no different :) There is no exception for this rule. There is always an exception.

Yes, the exception is that this rule is the only rule that does have an exception.
