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?

(In reply to surely a paradox by maverick)

just because something is false, doesn't mean the exact opposite is true. just like saying he runs everywhere is false, but he runs sometimes is true, so therefore, the statement could be false, he doesn't lie all of the time, but he does lie.
