They don’t break the rule. They are the exceptions to the rule.
“I before E, except after C,
and in words that say ‘ay’ as in neighbor and weigh,
but then buyer beware, is it their, there or they’re?
‘It’s neither or either,’ she sneered, which was weird.
…I could go on like this all day, but there are 923 more words to rhyme, and clearly, dear tumblrs, I don’t have the time.

“I opened a book and in I strode.
Now nobody can find me.
I’ve left my chair, my house, my road,
My town and my world behind me.
I’m wearing the cloak, I’ve slipped on the ring,
I’ve swallowed the magic potion.
I’ve fought with a dragon, dined with a king,
And swam in a bottomless ocean.
I opened a book and made some friends.
I shared their tears and laughter
And followed their roads with its bumps and bends
To the happily ever after.
I finished my book and out I came.
The cloak can no longer hide me.
My chair and my house are just the same,
But I have a book inside me.” — Julia Donaldson (via consultingcorsair)
