The following sentence is false. The preceding sentence is true. Are these sentences true or false?

Are the sentences true or false? Neither. If one of them is true, the other has to be false, and vice versa, aka a paradox. So the answer to the question is neither?

If a chicken says, "All chickens are liars" is the chicken telling the truth?

Maybe all chickens are liars but that doesn't mean they ALWAYS lie. They can lie and be called liars but they can also tell the truth sometimes too. So this chicken may be telling the truth that all chickens are liars, but then lie about something else to be called a liar.

What's black and white and red all over?
