I like this. While it would be a bit longer, I'm wondering if the message should not read instead as follows:

... Did you use the same quotes here as those enclosing the string?

===

I suspect that errors coming from the use of a single quote, as in:

'Don't do this'

might be just as prevalent if not more so; however, they might be more difficult to properly diagnose.
