Inserting a & into a table

There has *got* to be an easy solution to this:

How do I insert a row into a table that has an embedded '&' character in it via sqlplus?

I tried :

insert into mytable (field1) values ('Rock & Hard Place');

and it asks me to define 'Hard'. Any combination of && or &&& or /&, etc fails (obviously, I can't find any documentation on this). Do I need to do a CHR(?) or something to that effect, or is there an escape character I can use?

Any help would be greatly appreciated...
