A vacant mind is proverb

 A vacant mind is open to all suggestions, as a hollow mountain returns all sounds

 Absence of occupation is not rest; a mind quite vacant is a mind distressed.
  William Cowper

 The watch-dog's voice that bayed the whispering wind, / And the loud laugh that spoke the vacant mind.
  Oliver Goldsmith

 I do not suggest that you should not have an open mind, particularly as you approach college. But don't keep your mind so open that your brains fall out.
  William Bennett

 We'll do the best we can with the time provided (before the season starts). I'm open to suggestions.

 I'm open to suggestions from any customer. They can bring me grandma's recipe and I'll try it.

 I expect that we'll be able to start the study in a matter of weeks. First, we'll find out if mountain biking is appropriate for Big Bend.
