Linking the manual: https://docs.python.org/2.0/ref/strings.html and the SO thread for conventions at single vs double quotes strings. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56011/single-quotes-vs-double-quotes-in-python

If you have a string that also requires quotes (example = a database query string), it's best to use double-quotes with single quotes being used between them. Otherwise, you'd have to character-escape every quotation-mark within the double/single quotes.
