На исходе дня. История ночи - [140]

.

Еще не полностью утраченная красота ночного неба, циклическое чередование периодов темноты и света, peгyлярный отдых от дневных картин и звуков — все будет нарушено усилившимся освещением. Безмерно пострадают экологические системы с присущими им особенностями ночной жизни. С уменьшением темноты сильно сократится возможность уединения, интимности и размышления над собой. С приходом этого светлого дня мы потеряем живую частицу нашей человечности — столь же драгоценную, сколь и вечную. Ту, что в глубинах темной ночи дает надежду любой утомленной душе.
