Simon,
You can use the constant QUOTE to insert your quotation marks, or use
numToChar(34). So, to output the string: Simon says, "Touch your toes."
you could do:
put "Simon says, " & QUOTE & "Touch your toes." & QUOTE
Or
put "Simon says, " & numToChar(34) & "Touch your toes." & numToChar(34)

I want to create a string with quotation(") marks in it. How can I
escape these characters so Director does not interpret them as the end
of a string?
Cheers
Simon
