A man in the state of Chu had a spear and a shield
for sale. He loudly praised his shield saying, "My shield is so strong that
nothing can pierce through it."
He also sang the praises of his spear. "My spear is
so strong that it can pierce through anything."
"What would happen," he was asked, "if your spear is
used to pierce your shield?" It is impossible for an impenetrable shield to
coexist with a spear that finds nothing impenetrable.
Moral:
Self-contradiction.
