The word 'quoter' is derived from the verb 'quote', which originated from the Latin word 'quotare', meaning 'to mark a book with numbers for reference'. Over time, the term evolved to encompass both the act of citing or repeating someone else's words, as well as the person who does so. The usage of 'quoter' to refer to a person known for their wise sayings gained popularity in the 20th century.
