Published in 1916, 'Hermione and Her Little Group of Serious Thinkers' by Don Marquis is a satirical examination of early 20th-century intellectual pretensions.

“Nearly every night before I go to bed I ask myself, "Have I vibrated in tune with the Infinite today, or have I failed?””

— Don Marquis

“Vibrations are the key to everything. Atoms used to be, but atoms have quite gone out.””

— Don Marquis

“The wand waved; the Adam's Apple leapt, and they were off. What followed cannot be indicated typographically. But if a cat were a sawmill, and a dog were a gigantic cart full of tin cans bouncing through a stone paved street, and that dog and that cat hated each other and were telling each other so, it would sound much like it.””

— Don Marquis
