Meta Cat Program

This is my SECOND programming problem I've written. yay. I guess. 5anz (talk)

Given an input, a Meta Cat Program outputs a program that outputs the original input. Both programs (The Meta Cat Program and the output of it) must be in the same language. For example, Python cannot print JavaScript code. I mean, it definitely can, but then it wouldn't be a Meta Cat Program. Well, unless it outputs a Polyglot, but we're getting too technical, and we're missing the point

Below is a diagram (that I made in MS paint) that explains a bit how this works, because I'm not confident in my ability to explain things.

This is also kind of a combination of a Cat Program and a print("Hello, World!") program, and unlike those, this can actually be somewhat useful.

Implementations

Add an implementation in your own language if possible.
