 I'd rather use a function that would find a substring and replace only
 this one substring. I may assume that "WHERE ", that we need to replace,
 would be the first in "SELECT", and the last in "UPDATE ".

 This regular expression is too [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Write-
 only_language write only] for me. And it assumes that there's only one
 quoted text, which I'm not convinced that it is.

 > * Replaces each instance with a placeholder.

 I'd rather use some random placeholder like `uniqid('__QUOTE__')`.
