It is a paraphrase, and slightly misleading. The basic meaning is that the Almighty expects us to enjoy those things that He created for our enjoyment, and If we don't it is displeasing to Him. (Compare with celibate catholic preisthood)

The Talmud deals in Jewish Philosophy, so I would say that if you are a believer then this quote is true. It's a matter of faith.
