If I am in the case, I will use htmlentities to encode the text before having it store to database and when query out the data, decode it with html_entity_decode().
Detail on how to use the functions will be on http://php.net/manual/en/function.htmlentities.php

It can be done in number of ways depending on data that you are storing.
Like:-
1) addcslashes is useful when you want to store data containing data like C i.e., \n etc.More info at manual.

 $originaltext = 'This text does NOT contain "" a new-line!';
  $encoded = addcslashes($originaltext, '"');
  $decoded = stripcslashes($encoded);
echo $decoded;

2) htmlspecialchars is useful when you want to convert special characters to HTML entities.More info at manual and then decode using htmlspecialchars_decode .

3) You can use addslashes() that is similar to

$data = "test";
echo "\"$data\"";

4)Use htmlentities — Convert all applicable characters to HTML entities.
and html_entity_decode - to decode html entities back to html

$orig = "I'll \"walk\" the <b>dog</b> now";

$a = htmlentities($orig);

$b = html_entity_decode($a);
