Is there any way to place a comment inside the sql of a query?

No, but you can add a Description to the query object in Access, which
shows when you click the Details view in the Database Window.
 
I sometimes add a 'comment' when I am building a query particular a tricky
criteria that I want to build in parts.

In the design view I add a new output field like this --
Comment test: "How now brown cow or the quick brown fox jumped"
 
Thats a great idea. It isn't truly a comment, as you indicate with
your quotes, because the query is doing a bit more work and processing
more data. But it's good if you really need it.
