If you keep losing yeah your variance is gonna be high but it will be in higher in limit because people beat you with shit all the more often.
I disagree in some aspects. Its a lot easier to drop your stack on a second best hand in NL. You can build it for an hour getting over double your buyin, and lose it to the fish who finally caught a hand.
Over the long run you may experience less variance with limit (I dont know, I'm all about NL), but short term NL can be terribly streaky. I haven't heard of someone dropping 25BB on a single hand in Limit.
