Normally yes, but *inside* literals you do indeed want double quotes.


I think the OP wants to be using quote_literal here.  I.e. instead of:

  execute 'insert into foo_something select (''' || new::text || '''::foo).*';

it wants to be closer to:

  execute 'insert into foo_something select (foo ' || quote_literal(new) || 
').*;';

but it's a bit fiddly and I may have got that wrong somewhere else.
