Liar
1. One who tells the truth about something that never happened; hence, a poet, a preacher, a politician, or an Arctic explorer.
2. An expert witness on the side of the Prosecution, or any witness called by the Defense.
3. One who reasons far ahead of his time; a seer. (As all combinations of facts must occur in endless time, the liar, no matter how absurd his statement, is uttering a truth, because he is stating a fact that has occurred or will occur at some future date. Thus, a liar, in the sense of one who utters a falsehood, can not be said, strictly speaking, to exist. As dirt is merely nectar in the process of evolving, so a liar is an observer born out of his time. He is the victim of a divine prank.)
