With XSLT 2.0 you can try it as follows:


  <xsl:template match="p">
    <para>
      <xsl:analyze-string select="." regex="()([^]*)()|()([^]*)()">
        <xsl:matching-substring>
          <quote open="{regex-group(1)}" close="{regex-group(3)}">
            <xsl:value-of select="regex-group(2)"/>
          </quote>
        </xsl:matching-substring>
        <xsl:non-matching-substring>
          <xsl:value-of select="."/>
        </xsl:non-matching-substring>
      </xsl:analyze-string>
    </para>
  </xsl:template>
