Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of prioritizing truth over seeking comfort. It suggests that if one's ultimate goal is to seek truth, they may find comfort along the way. By focusing on discovering what is true and real, one can find a sense of satisfaction and fulfillment. However, if we solely seek comfort without questioning the validity of our beliefs or desires, we might end up deluding ourselves with hollow and false reassurances. Eventually, this will lead to disappointment and a sense of hopelessness when confronted with the harsh realities of life.
