I mostly agree with the quote, in fact, I occasionally see bad works of art that would otherwise get quickly forgotten become more famous because of the negative criticism. On the other hand, when I read reviews I always go for the negative reviews because I want to be warned about the thing's potential flaws. Even if I disagree with the critics I still learn so much about my favourite works of art thanks to those opinions. Also, if a critic claims that everything is excellent, then I have no way to act on their recommendations because I don't know what's their standard or taste unless I can compare it with something they didn't like.
