A Quote by Vladimir Lenin

What do you mean less than nothing? I don't think there is any such thing as less than nothing. Nothing is absolutely the limit of nothingness. It's the lowest you can go. It's the end of the line.

But if nothing is nothing, then nothing has nothing that is less than it is.
