प्रार्थना समाजके स्थापक न्यायमूर्ति रानडे स्मृति दिन। 

बाबासाहब सूरतकी यात्रा पर। 1943

रानडेको गांधी और जिन्हासे बेहतर बताते हुए बाबासाहबने लिखा,

"If Ranade did not show splendour and dominance, he brought us no catastrophe. If he had no superhuman qualities to use in the service of India, India was saved from ruin by its abuse. If he was not a genius, he did not display that perverse super-subtlety of intellect, and a temper of mind which is fundamentally dishonest and which has sown the seeds of distrust and which has made settlement so difficult of achievement."
