"good choice of people that/who you quoted" would be the best correction here.
We do not say 'quoter' for someone who has quoted something.
good luck Sergio!

Quoter? Really? That would be a person that uses a quote, not the person that said it first...

I'm assuming you mean you dislike the quote, however, you like the people who said them?
If that's the case, tell whoever you are talking to. "That was a good choice on the people whom you quoted"
or
"Good choice of quoters."
or
"I like the people who you quoted"
If this situation is the opposite where you like the quote, but dislike the people who said them, you can say:
"Great quotes!"
or
"I like these quotes"
or
"I like the quotes, but not the quoters"
or
"I like the quotes, but not the people who said them."
NOTE: "Quoters" is not a real word in the English language, however, it describes the "people who made the quotes", it's shorter and easier to say than saying that whole statement, and it will easily be understood by a native English speaker, especially those who live in the USA.
