Maybe you need to read the book :) Or possibly just the wiki. Lexer rules start with an uppercase letter. Parser rules start with a lowercase letter. Lexer rules turn characters into tokens. Parser rules turn tokens into trees, or generate templated output, or carry out other actions. The spaces were disappearing because they were turning into WS tokens (which were hidden), since to the parser, all lexer rules are equal. By making a lexer rule that outputs a single token, it preserves everything in the quotes regardless of any other lexer rules.
