This is true. In fact, the Sun contains 99.5% of all the mass in the solar system, and Jupiter is more than half of the rest.

Earth, Mars, Saturn, all the asteroids, and all the other "minor bodies" such as comets all added together make up less then one quarter of one percent of the total mass of the solar system.
