Shell or Perl (adding quote around path)

Hi Experts,

I have a line as below:
Code:
Text 351:2139 /opt/bo/boexi30/bobje/data/.bobj/registry/software/business objects/suite 12.0/olap intelligence/occa(o)

What I need is:
add a single quote around the path as below:
Code:
chown 351:2139 '/opt/bo/boexi30/bobje/data/.bobj/registry/software/business objects/suite 12.0/olap intelligence/occa(o)'

NOTE the space between the directory name: business objects/

Please help in this.
