9464 | One of their own prophets said that Cretans are always liars [Anon (Titus)] |
Full Idea: One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, the Cretians are always liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. This witness is true. | |
From: Anon (Titus) (17: Epistle to Titus [c.115], I.12) | |
A reaction: The classic statement of the paradox, the word 'always' being the source of the problem. |
