Issue:
Wrong parsing of env variables in single quotes
I have the following `.env` file:
```
DATABASE_URL='postgres://localhost:5432/myapp_development'
```

When I run `dotenv get DATABASE_URL` this is what I get:
`DATABASE_URL="'postgres://localhost:5432/simulator_development'"`

When I try to use this with [dj-database-url](https://github.com/kennethreitz/dj-database-url) it is failing to parse the `DATABASE_URL` environment variable as it is.
It seems using single quotes in the `.env` file is causing this. 

It would be nice if this were documented somewhere if the behavior is intended 
I spent quite a bit of time trying to figure out where the error was.
Thanks 😃
