Quotes by Herbert R. Lottman (?)

“Rather than list hundreds of names in order of importance or in alphabetical or any other order, as I say, I have simply acknowledged them in the Notes. And instead of dozens and dozens of thank-yous, let there be just this one heartfelt expression of thanks.”
― Herbert R. Lottman, Albert Camus: A Biography
