Continuing on with my updating of quotes from my old geocities site....
The Bible is True - page 16 (1935 edition), by Sir Charles Marston
It's interesting to see how the Internet has grown since this was first put on
geocities back in November 2003. At that time the only reference I could find to Sir Charles Marston was this one.
This one from Time Magazine is a much more interesting link that I don't think was available at that time.
And the photo comes from this site, which discusses Marston's Palestine Exploration Fund.

It was a devastating argument against the system of Textual Criticism when it was claimed it could not be applied to modern literature. The leading articles in The Times are the work of various writers, but are doubtless amended and corrected by editors and sub-editors. Textual critics did not pretend to be able to distinguish one writer from another, nor to isolate the emendations of the editor. Yet unless Textual Criticism could be used to analyse modern literature, how could it be correctly applied to documents composed more than two thousand years ago, and written in a dead language?
