We are but artless folk and not expert in rhythm, time, and tune, but that does not matter. He for whom we sing our hymns understands them all, and he pays no attention to our deficiencies of execution.

More quotes by Mahadev Govind Ranade

What obstacle is there apart from the religious one. There is plenty to do in the world without it.

This is the land of religion, Be it be for good or for evil, we cannot do without religion. Religious thoughts are in our blood. If we try to flee from it, it will pursue us.

I profess implicit faith in two articles of my creed. This country of ours is the true land of promise. This race of ours is the chosen race.

...from the madding crowd’s ignoble strife.

We must bear our cross…not because it is sweet to suffer, but because the pain and suffering are as nothing compared with the greatness of the issues involved.
