Even if I accepted that Jesus - like almost every other prophet on record - was born of a virgin, I cannot think that this proves the divinity of his father or the truth of his teachings. The same would be true if I accepted that he had been resurrected.

Truth is on the side of the oppressed.

A rusty nail placed near a faithful compass, will sway it from the truth, and wreck the argosy.

Sometimes I dread the truth of the lines I say. But the dread must never show.

They whom truth and wisdom lead, can gather honey from a weed.
