Today, I listened to Masquerade from Phantom of the Opera, and one line caught my attention: 'I know nothing’. And this sentence makes me really interested because the sentence means she knows that she knows nothing. My explanation looks weird but 'nothing' contradicts the before sentence. So until the end of the sentence, the audience doesn't know she knows or not. Something related, I like 'I have nothing', 'I have nowhere to go', 'I have no idea'. These sentencea are probably common, but interesting to me as an English learner.
