EASY QUESTION!!!

Sorry I even have to bother asking this, but I had a brain fart.

How do i put double quotes ( " ) into a string?

```auto

myString = " John Said "How are you doing today?" Then I quickly ran away screaming, noticing the world is coming to an end";

```

Somthing like that you know…

And also, I know the single quotes method

```auto

myString = ' John Said "How are you doing today?" Then I quickly ran away screaming, noticing the world is coming to an end'

```

but for some reason that isn’t working with what I have made so far… ☹
