A paradox is an apparently true statement or group of statements that leads to a contradiction or a situation which defies intuition. There are many different kinds. This site will give you lots of examples.

YOU GOTTA MOVE TO IMPROVE!
“everything I say is a lie..that’s the truth…”

“he best way to ensure peace is to prepare for war”

“Courage is almost a contradiction in terms. It means a strong desire to live taking the form of readiness to die.”

“It is better to give than to receive.”

Easier to say than to explain. A statement of applied reason that ends in contradiction. But how can a statement be both true and false? lol Good post!

The Kings yacht is tied up at slip #5, and the Jones canoe

is also tied up at slip #5. that’s because there’s a paradoxical

configuration at the marina.

‘I never tell the truth’ is a paradox, because it can’t be true because I just told the truth, but it can’t be a lie or it would be the truth.
