No I wouldn't be a liar if I told you that

Student: How can you trust a liar that say's he's not lying?

Me: You can't.

Student: That's the paradox.

Me: Exactly. Because even if he says he is lying, he might not be, in which case he is.

Student: You're making my head hurt.

Me: That's because I just blew your mind.
