1 " ... the most important concept ever put forth was that matter, ALL matter, with no exceptions from stone to star to starfish to student to sovereign, is as divine as all else in the cosmos, for all flows from Consciousness, the Word that came before the World - and all, in time, will flow back. "
― Ki Longfellow , Flow Down Like Silver: Hypatia of Alexandria
2 " Any word you have to hunt for in a thesaurus is the wrong word. There are no exceptions to this rule. "
― Stephen King
3 " True intelligence is pure love which does not exclude or waste anything.Not even a grain of sand is excluded or wasted. There are no exceptions in what is set free and in what is in service to this setting free.Life, the formless, form and fragrance, knows exactly what it is doing.Life is pure, unfiltered Intelligence flowing as whatever shape is now appearing.It is alive and it is all calling us Home.Do you hear the grain of sand calling your name?It says, “Love.”Do you sense the truth of it?If not, lean in and ‘listen’ again - this time with the whole of your being. "
4 " In life there might be rules. In love there are no exceptions to those rules. No one is spared from heartbreak. We all suffer it at some point or another. You simply can't control who you love and in particular, you can't control what kind of person they are. "
― J.C. Reed , The Lover's Game (No Exceptions, #2)

6 " Libertarians make no exceptions to the golden rule and provide no moral loophole, no double standard, for government. "
― Murray N. Rothbard
7 " Libertarians make no exceptions to the golden rule and provide no moral loophole, no double standard, for government. That is, libertarians believe that murder is murder and does not become sanctified by reasons of state if committed by the government. We believe that theft is theft and does not become legitimated because organized robbers call their theft " taxation." We believe that enslavement is enslavement even if the institution committing that act calls it " conscription." In short, the key to libertarian theory is that it makes no exceptions in its universal ethic for government. "
8 " All great stories began as shitty first drafts.There are no exceptions to this. "

9 " It was a part of myself that was my enemy; I still had a childish illusion that the flesh on my own bones was somehow unique and precious to the universe, in some obscure corner of my mind I wanted the others to love me and make exceptions for me simply because I felt heat and cold, pain and loneliness as they did. Now this was gone once and for all, and I understood there were no exceptions and on one was invulnerable, we all had to share the same conditions and in the end this was simply mortality, the mortality of things as well as ourselves. After that I didn't expect anybody to love me... "
― MacDonald Harris , Mortal Leap
