Question : ' when building string

can you guide how you can accommodate for ' when building strings. for example, in the below, if the job already has a ' in its name, then it fails.

         
          SELECT 'EXEC MSDB.dbo.sp_update_job ' + char(13) +
'@job_name = ' + char(39) + j.[Name] + char(39) + ',' + char(13) +
'@owner_login_name = ' + char(39) + 'sa' + char(39) + char(13) + char(13)
FROM MSDB.dbo.sysjobs j
INNER JOIN Master.dbo.syslogins l
ON j.owner_sid = l.sid
WHERE l.[name] <> 'sa'
ORDER BY j.[name]
