Liar or not? (Posted on 2002-11-12)

A man walks up to you and says:
"Everything I say to you is a lie."

Is he telling you the truth or is he lying?

If the man is telling the truth he is contradicting his own statement. Again he cannot be lying because then he should always be truthful which again contradicts his statement.
