sql Quotes problem

Performing a relatively simple database search with this line

$sql = "SELECT MAX(end_time) AS end_time FROM $table WHERE date = $date";

When i execute this i get no results, when i execute it in phpMyAdmin with the variables hardcoded

SELECT MAX(end_time) AS end_time FROM PhilS_timesheets WHERE date ='2005-04-27'

(and with the date in single quotes) i get the correct answer, how can i achieve the same results with variables?

thanks in advance, Phil
