I think we are defined by our actions. If those actions are materialistic, then we are materialstic. Yet even a monk is defined by his possessions: his lack of them. Yet since he has so few possessions, we are more observant of his "inner possessions," whether they are charm, grace, logic, or impatience, negativity, or intolerance.
