You say, "entre comillas"
it is pronounced-- "en treh, coh mih jahs"
This is how you would say it in a regular conversation.
tu me dijiste que el fue--entre comillas-- "tu amigo"...
or
tu me dijiste que el fue "tu amigo"--entre comillas...
I've heard people say it both ways..

When you are quoting a text:
quote = Cita
unquote = Fin de Cita
when quoting just some words then you do it with
comillas = entre comillas
he said: "stop" before ... = el dijo: "para", antes de ...

Babel fish is great but it can be incorrect at times but it's better than wasting $15 dollars to find one word in Spanish. Just be warned that it isn't always correct.

I think you mean "Quote, unquote," like you're quoting someone. This would literally be, "cotización, fin de cita." It might not be as common a usage as it is in colloquial English.
In proper English, you wouldn't say them together, you would put the quoted words in between.
