It’s from the early church father Tertullian and is taken from his five-volume work Against Marcion. In this quote Tertullian is of course contesting Marcion’s Gnostic docetistic notion.

“You may, I assure you, more easily find a man born without a heart or brains, like Marcion himself, than without a body, like Marcion’s Christ!”
