The definition of a word

[Peter T. Evensen]

I just ran into something unexpected.  If I do the following, I get 
1!  Does having a quote in a text string change the definition of a word?

put the number of words in (quote & "This is a test" & quote)

In anything defined in quotes considered one word?  I would have expected 
"This is a test"  (including the quotes) to have 4 words:
"This
is
a
test"

I tried using token, and I get the same result.

put the number of words in (quote & "This is a test")

produces 1 as well, but

put the number of tokens in (quote & "This is a test" & quote)

produces 0
