You don't need quotes with the assignement because pathname expansion
isn't done on assignment words, however anywhere else in the line
unquoted fields are usually subject to pathname expansion so you do need
to quote the variable in the 'echo' command;

AA=*
echo "$AA"

Yes!  I can do more complicated too:

echo '#include <stdio.h>@int main(void){printf("*\n");return(0);}@'|tr '@' '\012'>a.c;cc a.c;a.out
