Abstract
This paper aims to identify a commonality among the paradoxes, in particular, Russell-type paradoxes including some new ones such as the indirect method of proof. We found that the commonality is self-reference. Then we have looked further and found an explanation for certain problems or contradictions in mathematics. If includes the non-categoricalness of any set of axioms and the notion of set of all sets.
