More Insight from John Snell

"I feel I'm able to make sounds that are good audible representations of emotions." 10/3/01

"The main importance of ones schedule should be flexibility, for then you can take advantage of inspiration whenever it comes." 10/4 good buddy. 2001.

"Intelligence is not a factor in any animal's ability to feel pain." 10/14/01

"It certainly erks me to suffer the consequences arising from another's stupidity." 10/14 (In my dream 1 hr ago some drunks were standing and peeing into my '74 Convertible VW "Thing"! So that's how I thought of that quote, but another example is if I die from an attack meant to protest a United States foreign policy that I probably don't even agree with!)

At this incredibly loud venue, side stage guitar-teching for Mark Mallman and the Heat, is where I write my quotes (the next 3 anyway) 11/16/01

1. "John Snell the Tenth is who I am. Man! I know myself well."

2. "How can Amy (my girlfriend at the time) and I have such wonderful talents that each of us wants to share with the other, and not get it done? Hopefully we live long, but we often place too much stock in that hope."

3. It's a sad thing. I've written songs that no one will know. I know them all, but I the only one who does. Give me the opportunity. Just give me the opportunity-I'll produce. (Big show, lazza lookers.)

"I've never met a phone so message as the busy is." 11/13/01 Regarding Ryan's new Voice Mail.

"I'm not a very same-time-every-week kind of guy." 11/13/01

"I'm so against violence that I would have a hard time pulling the petals from a live rose. Besides, It would be a lot of work to re-make a rose from a pile of petals." 11/13/01

This isn't a quote, but this is on the back of the same post office receipt as the last quote: "Wow. The guy of whom I've a bad impression just walked by. (I write this in intelligence code in case it's grabbed suddenly from my hand.) So, the guy of whom I've a bad impression just walked by and he eyed my wallet! I'm holding in my hands my wallet, a large set of keys, and my latest album, now all while writing. The dishonest folk have eyes drawn to valuables like I have eyes drawn to old cars." 11/13/01

"Some of the visions in my head are destruction on my body to realize." Auto mechanics.

"Boy. The things I don't know… You could almost fill a book."

COMING EVENTUALLY--MY FRIEND'S QUOTES. You say 'em, I notice 'em. Here's one from my Dad to get you chompin' at the bit: "He collects cars like other people collect stamps." (referring to his son John Snell the 10th). Have you checked out the VW side to JohnSnellX.com?
