Error running simple selenium script with ruby: <main>': undefined local variable or method `‘selenium'

I am trying to run my first selenium webdriver script using ruby. I have ruby installed, as well as the gem for webdriver. Googling this question for several hours has been fairly fruiteless - any help is appreciated!

require "selenium-webdriver"

driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :firefox
driver.navigate.to "http://google.com"

element = driver.find_element(:name, 'q')
element.send_keys "Hello WebDriver!"
element.submit

puts driver.title

driver.quit

I get this error message:

testb.rb:2:in `<main>': undefined local variable or method `‘selenium' for main:Object (NameError)

ruby -v ruby 2.1.1p76 (2014-02-24 revision 45161) [x86_64-darwin12.0]

gem list returns selenium-webdriver (2.40.0) as part of the list

Can someone guide me a little? I think ruby simply isn't recognizing selenium and can't get past the second line of code - is there another step to 'link up' selenium with this simple ruby script?

Line two was using single quotes (') rather than double for "selenium-webdriver". This is fixed.
