Or:

awk -F\" '{print $2}'

which sets the field separator to " and then prints the second field, which
is between the two quotes.  If you need the quotes output then the print
could be:

	print "\""$2"\""

This will guarantee that everything between the quotes will be printed,
while anything that may follow the second quote will be ignored.  Also,
no assumptions are made about the number of leading fields so modification
of the data file will be less likely to require changing of the the
awk script.
