Timmy:
It's not possible to nest quotes in console commands.

Possible workarounds:
Put your command in a .cfg file and execute that file instead
1. Create a new file <something>.cfg in <steam_install>/garrysmod/cfg/
2. The file should contain the console command you want to execute e.g.:
--- Code: ---ulx tsaycolor "Keep calm, love Team Ulysses" red
--- End code ---
3. After saving the file, you should be able to run:

--- Code: ---exec <something>
--- End code ---

--- Code: ---bind p "exec <something>"
--- End code ---

Modify the command so nested quotes can be avoided

--- Code: ---ulx_tsay_color_table = { "black", "white", "red", "blue", "green", "orange", "purple", "pink", "gray", "yellow" }

function ulx.tsaycolor( calling_ply, color, message )
    local pink = Color( 255, 0, 97 )
    local white = Color( 255, 255, 255 )
    local black = Color( 0, 0, 0 )
    local red = Color( 255, 0, 0 )
    local blue = Color( 0, 0, 255 )
    local green = Color( 0, 255, 0 )
    local orange = Color( 255, 127, 0 )
    local purple = Color( 51, 0, 102 )
    local gray = Color( 96, 96, 96 )
    local grey = Color( 96, 96, 96 )
    local maroon = Color( 128, 0, 0 )
    local yellow = Color( 255, 255, 0 )

    if color == "pink" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, pink, message )
    elseif color == "white" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, white, message )
    elseif color == "black" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, black, message )
    elseif color == "red" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, red, message )
    elseif color == "blue" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, blue, message )
    elseif color == "green" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, green, message )
    elseif color == "orange" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, orange, message )
    elseif color == "purple" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, purple, message )
    elseif color == "gray" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, gray, message )
    elseif color == "grey" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, grey, message )
    elseif color == "maroon" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, maroon, message )
    elseif color == "yellow" then
        ULib.tsayColor( nil, false, yellow, message )
    elseif color == "default" then
        ULib.tsay( nil, message )
    end

    if util.tobool( GetConVarNumber( "ulx_logChat" ) ) then
        ulx.logString( string.format( "(tsay from %s) %s", calling_ply:IsValid() and calling_ply:Nick() or "Console", message ) )
    end
end
local tsaycolor = ulx.command( "Chat", "ulx tsaycolor", ulx.tsaycolor, "!color", true, true )
tsaycolor:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.StringArg, hint="color", completes=ulx_tsay_color_table, ULib.cmds.restrictToCompletes }
tsaycolor:addParam{ type=ULib.cmds.StringArg, hint="message", ULib.cmds.takeRestOfLine }
tsaycolor:defaultAccess( ULib.ACCESS_ADMIN )
tsaycolor:help( "Send a message to everyone in the chat box with color." )
--- End code ---
The modified version allows you to run:

--- Code: ---ulx tsaycolor red Keep calm, love Team Ulysses
--- End code ---

--- Code: ---bind p "ulx tsaycolor red Keep calm, love Team Ulysses"
--- End code ---

Here is a link to the modified command. You may click "Revisions" to see exactly what I changed.
The modified version allows you to run:

--- Code: ---ulx tsaycolor red Keep calm, love Team Ulysses
--- End code ---

--- Code: ---bind p "ulx tsaycolor red Keep calm, love Team Ulysses"
--- End code ---

--- End quote ---
