title: using regular expressions in ruby to find a string in quotations
body: <p>I am trying to construct a regex to find a string in ruby</p>
  
  <pre><code>str = "foo"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want to be able to stop trying to find the string after it finds the closing quotation mark. I also want to keep the quotation marks so I can output the string I found as:</p>
  
  <pre><code>puts "the string is:" + str
  =&gt; the string is: "foo"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am pretty new to using regular expressions.</p>
