Usually paper cuts are on your hands and fingers. Your fingers are one of the most sensitive areas of your body, packing more nerves in that area than almost anywhere else in your body except your tongue and your privates. If more nerves are involved, its going to hurt more.
That is also why those new blood sugar monitors that let people test their blood sugar on their arm instead of their fingers supposedly hurt so much less.

I know, I hate getting paper cuts; they hurt for awhile after too.

Because your nerve endings are closer to the skin surface.

Because with larger injuries, our bodies go into a local or general shock, so we don't feel them as much.

because even though they're small they're just big enough to stimulate the little nerves there
