I'm completely with you on this one. This quote is goofy. Searching for the truth has lots of value and everyone should do it. Choosing not to have the truth so that you can continue to search for it is goofy.
Unless the author meant that the truth is something horrible and you're better off not knowing it. If the truth is that you get in life what you can take from others and that when you die you're dead, then I'd rather be searching for the truth than knowing it.
