This phrase are ideally for Indians. Don't get angry, because i'm also Indian. The truth is stranger then fiction. So its a truth. I think we are born with this attitude of breaking rules. When we see sum one follow the rules, we say that y r u doing it. u r a crazy men. in this way we r discouraging the effort of people who likes to follow rules and make him think that he is crazy. we dnt appreciate people who follow rules, instead make fun of him. in india the people who breaks the rule is more superior then person who follows it. does it happen in ur country too. pls share. cheers.

Truly agree that we Indians break rules but later we also pay for them also. Our attitude is the reason that we are not liked in any other country.
For me I think I had started paying attention to some rules and try to follow them like the traffic rules. I wear a seat belt although i know that no one will fine me for not wearing a seat belt in my state.
So i believe that we should ourselves think on this issue and try to change ourselves.

Yeah.. and yet we are the number one who complain about it if rules are broken. Thing is that we need more practical and disciplinary knowledge starting from home because we all had had this classroom knowledge of how we should follow rules but yet back at home or in community (we can say in practical situations) we learn from our elders that following rules are not that necessary! Btw, I think every country has it's own share of rule breakers it's just in most of the places they don't get away that easily. Let's see what others have to say about it...

school can only give u knowledge for 6 hrs, but at home u r given knowledge for 24 hrs. you r right that children learn frm elders what they do and if elders follow rules then children will be following the rules. so yes the manners of following rules should be given at home. cheers.

Yeah, I guess it's also true in our country but not all.For me why do we make rules if we only will break it , so it's better to have no rules at all.There' a saying that "in every rule there is an exemption "I guess maybe to make it right.But rules are rules and are meant to be followed.

Yes, what is the purpose of having rules so that the operation will be smooth like company rules.But if it's not being followed then it is not good to set rules.

I agree to you, that phrase is ideal for Indians if you said so...
Maybe some rules are meant to be broken but it doesn't mean breaking rules are good.
Some, maybe acceptable if it is not good for the person who sees it.
I respect all of your opinions but for me, rules are not meant to be broken. Rules are meant to be followed. It will depend on the persons perspective. If good, Rules are meant to be followed. If not good, Rules are meant to be broken.

It must be true for my country, for you just said so!
Anyway, i'm one of those 'crazy' people and I have had my share of wise advices. Whether I love it or hate it...
I believe if I made some rules those are to be broken... by me! Well there are some other as well, those oppressing ones...

Friend, I am agree with you but with partial difference. We are not born with the attitude of breaking the rules. Rather we are born with the attitude to pinch the person who are following rules.
