Goddamn. Is there a list of Diogenes quotes? I've heard a couple but this one was new to me.

My favorite is when he got caught masturbating in public and responded with "If only it were as easy to banish hunger by rubbing the belly." Or when Plato was teaching a class and defined a man as a featherless biped, and Diogenes brought a plucked chicken to the class and said "Behold, Plato's man!"
