We all know the cute little wooden boy Disney dreamt up one day. There's no denying the fact that when Pinocchio would tell a lie, his nose would grow.

So what would happen if he were to say "my nose will now grow"?

Would it? Would he be liying? But if it did, he wouldn't be lying.

His statement would be inaccurate, which doesn't require that it be a lie.
