If I want to summarize that quote, it would be equal to "Who cares?".

Lone Wanderer's quote also says to me to be content with what you have and not worry about what you don't have. If you worry about what you don't have then you will never be happy or satisfied.

If you worry about what you don't have then you will never be happy or satisfied. i also get that meaning from it. but quotes are specially designed to give people a gist of life. they should be simple, clear and allowing for no different interpretations. the general meaning of the statement should be taken rather than restricting it to what x or z takes it to mean.
