(pg 298)....................................
Are we going to discover anything more about Snape?
Yes.
And Harry's mother? Did he have a crush on Harry's mother or unrequited love or anything like that? Hence his animosity to Harry?
Yes. You speculate?
I speculate, yes, I'm just asking whether you can tell us.
No I can't tell you. But you do find out a lot more about Snape and quite a lot more about him actually.

Royal Albert Hall Appearance June 26 2003
Q&A with Stephen Fry (pg 315)..................................................
SF: Yes, now it's interesting because, um, Malfoy, Goyle and Crabbe are
almost irredeemably bad there's just nothing, well particularly there's
nothing attractive about G and C, they really are repulsive (JKR laughs)
Malfoy I suppose is reasonably stylish in his.
JKR: He's stylish in the film yeah. He's got a certain flair
SF: Where as most of the character, like Snape for example, are very hard to
love but there's a sort of ambiguity I think is probably the best word you
can't quite decide, there's something rather sad about Snape as well,
something very lonely and you kind of, although he turns out to of course
have such a wicked past and it's fascinating to watch how he you know, in
the first book we thought he was the evil one and a apart form Voldemort the
most evil and in the second we thought that and slowly we just get this idea
that maybe he's not so bad after all
JKR: Yeees. You shouldn't think he's too nice, let me just say that
.
SF: Right I shall bear that in mind. Worth watching Severus Snape
JKR: He's worth keeping and eye on, definitely
..............................................................
(pg.320)
JKR: Hey Jackson
SF: Hello Jackson, hurrah. And lets have a look and see what your question
was shall we?
JL: Prof Snape has always wanted to be the defence against the dark arts
teacher. In book 5 he still doesn't get the job Why does Professor
Dumbledore not allow him to be the defence against the dark arts teacher?
SF: There
JKR: <sighs> That is an excellent question and the reason is that, I have to
be careful what I say here, the reason is that to answer it fully would give
and awful lot away about the remaining two books but when Professor
Dumbledore took Professor Snape on to the staff and Professor Snape said I'd
like to teach defence against the darks arts please and Professor Dumbledore
felt that that might bring out the worst in Professor Snape
<laughs> Somewhat
JKR: So he said I think we'll let you teach potions and see how you get
along there
SF: Hmm. Now Snape, we talked a little about him before. There's something
about the letter S isn't there?
JKR: Yes there is
SF: Especially with an N in with it. You can't help saying it without
snarling
JKR: I could have very easily have called him Snicket but Snicket is a
funier, kinder word
SF: And sneeze and sneer and Snape and
JKR: And snarl
SF: Yes and of course the founder of the house was
JKR: Salazar Slytherin
SF: Salazar Slytherin another snaky thing
JKR: Very snaky
SF: Snakes feature a lot. Is Parselmouth a real thing or did you make that
up?
JKR: Parselmouth is an old word for someone who has a problem with their
mouth like a hair lip
SF: Oh right so it is a real word again. There you are you see. Very, very
clever. Now, Order of the Phoneix it's 766 pages long that's a big book by
any standards
JKR: It is big
SF: And I've got sit in front of a microphone and read it
JKR: I'm really sorry
SF: Read out every word. I'm just a little bit cross with you!
JKR: I know, I'm so sorry
