Ahem. You can, just use the \xhh.. where hh.. is the hex code of the
character, or use \ooo where ooo is the octal code of the character in
question. See the Python Language Reference:

  http://www.python.org/doc/current/ref/strings.html

In this case, use \x22 or \042:

  <dtml-var "'hello \x22 world'">
