Nobody can believe nothing. When a man says he believes nothing, two things are true: first, that there is something in which he desperately, perhaps dearly, wishes not to believe; and second that there is some unspoken thing in which he secretly believes, perhaps even unknown to himself.
This sounds like it implies that both things must be true. It seems to me that either would be sufficient to justify someone saying they believe nothing.
