I can't say the original is wrong. Since these quotes don't have
"open" and "close" versions like {} or () pairs does, people often
use ` as opening and ' as closing - while staying within ascii.
Alternatives are things like « » or other things, but these aren't
ascii anymore. So I'd say keep it alone... ;)
