You don't really need all the quotes, just need the pluses.
Just remember to double the ones that are not the outer-most quotes.

Hi all,

In Free form,

How do I write :

MyVar = "This is a sentence of around 130 characters containing apostrophes
an'all"

Message file is not a possibility for me.

I don't want to put it in a constant as I think it will never be reused and
I cannot give it a meaningful name.


Thanks
