I think this is called like godel's law or something.
I am reading a book which discusses it at length called something like the "Physics of Immortality"
It makes my head hurt. But I fall asleep quick.
All Duers are liars. I'm a Duer.
And I am lying to you.
On edit: Godel's law. It is a paradox.

The Nature of Being: Direct Observation vs. Intellectual Interpretations of Reality
: "I still find it hard to believe that it is impossible to prove i am real. I can only believe I am Real."
You can observe directly the fact that you exist without any form of reliance on any form of analysis. Or have you forgotten how to use your physical senses? Godel's Law shows that no self-referential logical system can prove its own existence, so your attempts to logically prove that you exist are predisposed to failure, according to Godel's Law.
Operationally, one should do well to recall Godel's Law and apply it to the operations of the human analytical system. Godel's Law also states, to put it in simple terms, that there is no logical system which can include all information regarding all things, while at the same time, there is no logical system which can be developed which is not paradoxial.
For example, evaluate the following expression:
"This sentence is true. The preceding sentence is false."
So, is the first sentence true or false?
It is a paradox.
