If there's an exception to every rule, is there an exception to that rule?

Nice Chinmoy!!
Break the rules!!!
let Rule1: you never lie = true
statement1: this was your first lie.
lets say we take rule1 to be true ie "you never lie" . then what you say must be true . so the "statement1" is true . so which proves that "this was your first lie" which contradicts rule1 (ie we proved that you lied even when rule1 says you never lie)

The rules of nature studied by Science are precise and without exception. For example, law of gravitation has no exception though may be limited to some distance above Earth. The rules framed for governance of society have more exceptions because people do not follow rules and always look for exceptions for the purpose of avoiding to follow these.
