Is there a way in php to extract any string between those quotes and all the other text, and variables - extract

Question

Is there a way using php to extract a string from here. Ive found other posts but i think this one may be harder, because the string may include quotes or other characters in itself.
String is like this, with some variable parts and other constant, that i will point to you:
<base href="http://www.domain.com/folder/" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="description" content="What about having a look at those webs. "/>
It is all that including the line breaks.
Im targeting what would be inside the content part of meta name and between the quotes:
What about having a look at those webs.
This parts are constant:
<base href="" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="description" content=""/>
while these parts are variable:
http://www.domain.com/folder/
What about having a look at those webs.
How could php look for the pattern:
<meta name="description" content="
and print everything following until it finds pattern:
"/>
Other replies use very long regex to strip, but im unsure this could be done with a long paragraph like this and with multiple strings changing, so maybe there is a way to look for patterns and chop this.
The string is the output of a smarty.
