Normally yes, but *inside* literals you do indeed want double quotes.
I think the OP wants to be using quote_literal here. I.e. instead of:
execute 'insert into foo_something select (''' || new::text || '''::foo).*';
it wants to be closer to:
execute 'insert into foo_something select (foo ' || quote_literal(new) || ').*;';
but it's a bit fiddly and I may have got that wrong somewhere else.
