Is there a word to describe a person who makes up nice quotations?

Best Answer

Someone who makes something up isn't quoting anything, but they might coin a particularly quotable phrase.

Such a phrase can be called an epigram,

a pithy saying or remark expressing an idea in a clever and amusing way

[ODO]

...and the person who concocts it is called an epigrammatist.
