It happens in life, as in grammar, that the exceptions outnumber the rules.
在人生中,好比在文法里,有例外多于规则这么一回事。
In the first trial of the man accused of arson, who was found guilty, his counsel filed a bill of exceptions.
这个被指控犯有纵火罪的男人在初审时被判罪名成立,他的律师当庭提出异议。
There is no rule but has exceptions. (=There is no rule that doesn't have exceptions.)
每一种规则都有例外。
