There is a inner meaning of that "rules are to break". But we should know that where should it be. Misuse of rules are also harmful for us. No One should break it for his own benefit. Our young generations have got it in a wrong way.
They don't even know that he is playing with himself while breaking rules because rule are made for his benefit. They get a wrong image in mind of persons who sees him while breaking rules. And its better to wait then get a wrong image. And rules should be broken when its benefitable for public or a needy person keeping aside his own selfishness.

Let me express my views by describing what exactly are the rules made for, in my opinion rules are the restrictions laid in order to live a proper life in our society.
Rules form a important part of our life whether it is for road signals or schools it always are meant for a purpose. But I agree there are some situations in which we need to break them because we have no option for example to break a traffic signal in case of emergency like for saving one's life.
But today rules are broken for any unnecessary purpose for example many of people don't wear helmets while riding and this has resulted in a great number of loss of life, today the amount of traffic and rash driving is at high peak and if we don't keep our safety it definitely will lead to disaster.
In India laying rules is easy task but to follow them and implement them is a difficult job but we should all remember that we should all try to follow them because one's mentality becomes thousands when people see any one of us also breaking rules so lets not set a bad example for our people let's go for a change it's not I nor you but it's we who can make the difference.

When I was young my parents had this rule that I could never have dessert before dinner. I hated it because as with most kids dessert was the best part of my day. When I was 9 years old I had enough, my friend at the time josh was over and we decided to break the one rule that was never supposed to be broken, eat dessert before dinner.
We rode our push bikes down to the local store and bought a 2 liter container of neapolitan ice-cream and smuggled it into my room under my jumper. We hadn't eaten anything all day in preparation and were starving. Together we ate that whole container of ice-cream within the hour and within the next 40 minutes we were vomiting it back up.
Although it is a light hearted example of breaking a rule, I understand that if I hadn't broken that one rule I might still be eating dinner before dessert without any knowledge of why I was doing it. Sure, rules are set so we can all live in a perfect world but in the end the perfect world is the one we don't appreciate because we haven't learnt from our mistakes and experienced the reason for the rule in the first place.
Making mistakes and learning from them is instrumental in human development and rules are made to be broken to push us further into understanding our own boundaries and the worlds reasons for having rules. Rules are meant to be broken so we can learn for our own, and each others mistakes.

Hey friends,
Lot of discussions are going on this topic 'Rules are meant to be broken'. It may be true may not be true. However, I feel that rues are meant to be broken but we need to specify which rules. All rules need not be broken, if some are oppressive then there are as some rules which are made for the betterment of the society.
Just imagine, what would have happened, if there were no rules to elect government, no traffic rules. Any one can do anything, ride anywhere, go anywhere. Ya it sounds good for sometime thinking 'aapni marzi ke malik' (to be the master's of ones own will) but what next, in long-run, it will become a torturous, no one there to guide. Life will be like a boat without a boatman.
On the other hand, there are some rules which should be broken example dowry, child-marriage and many more. Conclusively, I would like to say rules are not meant to be broken but yes they need to be changed with time, situation and fashion.

Yes. Rules are made to be broken. First we have to know that rules are made for us. If we are not feeling comfortable in that rule we can break it. One example is that before freedom British government has made some rules also. If we always used to follow those rules, then we can't think about the freedom that we got in 1947.
Our freedom fighter had broken those rules and that is why we are living in freedom. Like salt law was broken by Mahatma Gandhi like that we have so many examples. So we have to determine which rule is beneficial for us.

According to me definitely rules meant to be broken if old rules will be broken then only we can have the pleasure to enjoy new rules and have the pleasure to break them. But not each and every rule is meant to be broken for selfish reasons only those which can cause positive effects on the society.

Hi friends.
In India this is true. It might called rules are meant to be broken. In India rules have been broken since they are made. Nobody wants to follow the rules. I think in India rules broken has been became a new rule.

Rules that we follow in our day to day life cycle are the essential measures of taking steps ahead rightly and proper decisions are centered round the rules which are key to living a good life. Offcourse stringent laws as for rules before us are somewhat difficult to comply with. Then we take recourse to ignore them somehow resulting in operational difficulties on the way to our normal existence as though we defy to sort out normal acceptance of the other sides and respects of the hard rules only tricky way is the means of breaking a rule for mere attaining objectives in a short cut.
But we forget that there is a reward waiting for us in a long course of our movements ahead. Yet we commit gross mistakes simply avoiding the path of our duty and rules are the does and don't that we sometimes forget to follow because of our petty interests that in course of time prove to be so disastrous that we can hardly be able to protect us from monstrous downfall which is beyond all expectations.
Then we suffer and think long about the past course of action which rendered us sorrow and tears for happiness and cheers due to breaking rules and making a primrose path by sheer indulgence in corrupt means in what actually is in form and manner.

Hello friends,
According to me Yes, Rules are meant to be broken but not all the rules. If we break all the rules then a lots of problem created. There are some specified rules needs to be break so that new rules can be introduced. In a fight, game, competition, or war the first rule is "there is no rule", at that time the aim is to win.
We all know that police always behind the thief & the new policy, rules are made to catch the thief when the thief are easily break the old rules.
Someday ago there was a news published in paper that, thief stole the money from train passenger by feeding biscuit, to avoid this government declare to attach CCTV camera and a guard in each boggy. This rule makes a secure journey for the passenger.
