"(""|[^"])+"

gets me:
(1) "quick"
(2) "fox jumped ""over"" the"

- the | is an OR-operator which means that after " you match either "" or
any character except "

I've tried to get rid of the initial and ending quotes -- I think it's
possible in the same expression -- but I haven't succeeded -- yet.
tricky? -- yes!
