Suppose this is a part of my django template:

<div class="txt"></div>
<script>
    $(document).ready(function(){
    var text = '{{ each.text }}'
    $('.txt').html(text);
    });
</script>

So this code is messing my output.Suppose the string returned by django to this template is This is great'thing.So here the output is only This is great.So how can I escape quotes and blockquotes in javascript?
