Pinocchio paradox causes Pinocchio's nose to grow if and only if it does not grow.

The Pinocchio paradox has nothing to do with Pinocchio being a known liar. If Pinocchio were to say "I am getting sick", this could be either true or false, but Pinocchio's sentence "My nose grows now" can be neither truth nor false; hence this and only this sentence creates the Pinocchio (liar) paradox. --Wiki
