Better yet is to take Finder out of the process since it isn't needed to do any of the stuff above.

set quote to "\""
set myquotedtext to "this is my text"
set mytext to quote & myquotedtext & quote
display dialog mytext

... and:

set {quote, myquotedtext} to {"\"", "this is my text"}
display dialog quote & myquotedtext & quote
