No, they are not the same. Simply writing 'hello world' in Pyhton Shell (IDLE) will do the trick only because this is how the shell interpretes user input. In _real_ script you will get an error. IDLE interpretes simple 'hello world' as an unnamed str-type variable. But if you try to do this: >>> 'hello world', 555 IDLE will give you a tuple as a result while >>> print('hello world', 555) will give you desired combined string as an output. That is why I always recommend to use functions and methods in canonical forms. If you need to print something - use print function to make your code less obfuscated. >>> 'hello world' 'hello world' >>> print(type(_)) <class 'str'> >>> 'hello world', 555 ('hello world', 555) >>> print(type(_)) <class 'tuple'> >>>

I think printing a string will not include the quotes while as quotes, single or double are added when not using print for instance when writing a string directly in prompt.
