Try the references at the bottom of the page. You can read the quotes in either of those works themselves, if you have some eldritch need to do so.
Next up would be suetonius.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suetonius_on_Christians
Suetonious, Pliny, and Tacitus, all contemporaries. The undercurrent here is that no one noticed or knew anything about christianity, let alone a jesus or some christ...until around 100ad. The first stories that filter in aren't representative of christianity as we know it, and speak more to the existence of christians and what they believed than anything else. Suetonius just calls it superstition, outright. A matter on which all three agreed.
