All of these suggestions are great. Let me add one other dimension.
Suppose I want to add curly quotations, italicize, underline, or bold
some of the words. I can get this to work:
plot(-15:15,15:-15, pch=NA)
text(x=0, y=5,
expression(bold(This)~is~a~underline(test)^1~of~the~italic(Emergency)~Broadcast~System.))
I can also get this to work:
text(x=0, y=-5, dQuote("This is another test."))
But, I've wrestled getting curly quotes to work within expression().
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Font issues can be system-dependent. The following works for me on Windows.
Insert unicode characters in the appropriate places. For example,
to place double quotes around the word 'Broadcast' in your
example above:
text(0, 5, expression(....~"\u201c"*Broadcast*"\u201d"~System))
Don't forget the '*' to concatenate the quote symbols with the word.
