A paradox is a statement or saying in which the first part of the statement is essentially the opposite of the ending of the statement.

For example, in your question, the option: "Listen to the sound of silence" is a paradox.

If you think about it, if something is silent, it cannot be heard, and therefore you cannot listen to something that cannot be heard - because it is silent.

This is just one example of how one piece of the sentence negates, or, for another term, is the "opposite" of the second piece.
