Default Rules of thumb

It seems that for practically every rule there are exceptions.

It seems that for every good thing there are counterfeits.

It seems that for every answered question there arises more questions.

It seems that for every truth there are perversions of that truth.

It seems that for every law there is a breaker of that law.

It seems that surrounding every scientific fact there are fictional embellishments.

It seems that without opposing forces cycles stop, yet by opposing forces motion stops.

It seems that the depth of our knowledge can be contained by the shallowness of our thinking.

It seems that if something sounds too good to be true it usually is, but many things that are true sound too good to be.

My rule of thumb is to investigate, and if it costs me some of my money then so be it.

It seems that most worthwhile things are not free.

That's how it seems to me.

On the other hand, I have also lost my share of money and time to quackery.
