The escaped characters only show up that way if you try to display the text. They don't actually exist in the variable.

Open TextEdit, enter some text with quotes and stuff try this script to see what I mean:

tell application "TextEdit"
 set blah to text of front document
 set docref to make new document at end of documents
 set text of docref to blah
end tell
