in reply to How do I print a quotation-mark?

Use some other string delimter, such as single quote (') or qq (as in qq(...) or qq/.../): 
print qq[And vroom said "Let there be nodes!" and there were nodes.\n]
+;

Use a "here-document" syntax: 
print <<"WALDO";
"Where is Waldo?" asked the creature?

It replied "On the next line!"
WALDO
