A long life, of few unsolicited interruptions, followed by long-lasting fame?

(the last probably not being one of his ends, but it weighed heavily among his contemporaries' ends)

Diogenes clearly welcomed interruptions. Pissing on patrons, arriving late to theatre, begging from statues. He was always making a point. As for a long life, I very much want that for myself and as a result live well and relax hard. Maybe that's what he did, but he wasn't aiming for it living in barrels and sharing food with dogs.
