You're right. There's a big difference when the statement is quoted correctly, as you duly noted.
On a related note, Ramakrishna once said: 'Woman and gold' is the cause of bondage. 'Woman and gold' alone constitutes samsara, the world. It is 'woman and gold' that keeps one from seeing God. No sooner is the covering of 'woman and gold' removed than one attains Chidananda, Consciousness and Bliss.
Of course, 'woman and gold' refers to lust and greed.
