How can there exist a "universal solution" even in theory?

There has to be some sort of "end of literal" terminator character
sequence.  That means there has to be some sort of escaping
mechanism when that "end of literal" sequence appears in the
literal itself.

A number of tools use a custom quote-string:

Bash:

   cat <<EOT
   "single and double" with \ and /
   EOT

Perl 5 also does this.
