enter key produces " '> " in MYSQL Console

In the MYSQL Console, I was attempting to add multiple values to a table and in an effort to start a new line, I selected shift+enter which produced '>. Now, every time I hit enter, I get '> rather than inserting my values or really being able to do anything now. How do I stop this?

It means you have opened a quote ' and did not closed it. Add another quote ' to close the opened one, add a semicolon ; to end the command and hit enter to execute it (you maybe get a syntax error, it the opened quote must be closed earlier).
