An empty mind is easy to feed.

An empty mind is easy to feed.

Summary

This quote implies that a person who lacks knowledge, curiosity, or critical thinking skills is vulnerable to manipulation and indoctrination. When someone has an empty mind, they are more readily influenced by external ideas and opinions because they lack their own frameworks for evaluating and processing information. This can lead to being easily persuaded or misled, as they may unquestioningly accept whatever is presented to them. Ultimately, the quote emphasizes the importance of being open-minded, seeking knowledge, and cultivating critical thinking in order to avoid being easily swayed by others.

If he stopped for food or gas, he was served no local fare or local fuel, but had one of Howard Johnson's nationally branded ice cream flavors, and so many gallons of Exxon.
