Reminded me a little of Diogenes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diogenes_of_Sinope).

As Buddha said, suffering ends when our craving for material things ends. We don't have to be as extremely hardcore as the dude above, but following this philosophy in a limited pragmatic manner I think can be very liberating.

You're right! I hadn't read about Diogenes in detail before. Thanks for the link! It does sound like they have quite a bit in common.
