When you use quoted speech inside the quoted speech, you use
apostrophes to enclose the quotation within the quotation. I think
the British do it the other way around, though.
What I do not know is how a third level of quotation is indicated but
I think that was not being asked. <g> - I assume you Braille people
are doing this the same way sighted people do.
