How can I escape this HTML string within Java?

Question

I am having trouble with adding the buttonClassvariable into the class attribute. How can I escape the double and single quotes here?

 String buttonClass= changed ? "changeButton" : "dontChangeButton";
 button.append("<input id='" + id + "' type='button' value='" + buttonValue + "' class='" + buttonClass
 + "' ui-button ui-widget' />");
