Quote of the Day

Oliver Wendell Holmes once said:

"The young man knows the rules, but the old man knows the exceptions."

This may be more suitable in the law school context:

"The first year student knows the rules, but the upper year student knows the exceptions."

A jaded lawyer might say:

"The law school student barely knows the rules, but the practicing lawyer knows the exceptions."

Or, someone focused on grades - not me :) - might say:

"The B student knows the rules, but the A student knows the exceptions."

I'll leave it to you to parse the wisdom from the chaff.
