Как мы ходим в гости

...
Но Огнев уже не слушал и быстро удалялся от дома. На душе его, подогретой вином, было и весело, и тепло, и грустно... Он шел и думал о том, как часто приходится в жизни встречаться с хорошими людьми и как жаль, что от этих встреч не остается ничего больше, кроме воспоминаний. Бывает так, что на горизонте мелькнут журавли, слабый ветер донесет их жалобно-восторженный крик, а через минуту, с какою жадностью ни вглядывайся в синюю даль, не увидишь ни точки, не услышишь ни звука — так точно люди с их лицами и речами мелькают в жизни и утопают в нашем прошлом, не оставляя ничего больше, кроме ничтожных следов памяти. Живя с самой весны в N-ском уезде и бывая почти каждый день у радушных Кузнецовых, Иван Алексеич привык, как к родным, к старику, к его дочери, к прислуге, изучил до тонкостей весь дом, уютную террасу, изгибы аллей, силуэты деревьев над кухней и баней; но выйдет он сейчас за калитку, и всё это обратится в воспоминание и утеряет для него навсегда свое реальное значение, а пройдет год-два, и все эти милые образы потускнеют в сознании наравне с вымыслами и плодами фантазии.
«В жизни ничего нет дороже людей! — думал растроганный Огнев, шагая по аллее к калитке. — Ничего!»

Streetwise English Podcast - Pink Floyd
Welcome back to another mini episode of Streetwise English podcast. You can search for Streetwise English Podcast on other platforms and find full length episodes, but these are just mini podcasts. Today I'd like to talk about music, and specifically I'd like to talk about an English band called Pink Floyd. So Pink Floyd was big back in the 1970s. And I remember as a kid my dad had the album The Dark Side of the Moon, and the cover Art of the Dark Side of the Moon was a prism, like a triangle.
And then on the right side of the prism was a rainbow. So the spectrum of colors in light and this album was groundbreaking at the time because it was kind of a new genre of music. It was psychedelic rock, so there were soundscapes and they were using synthesizers and electric instruments in ways that people had never done before. And I looked, I Googled it, checked on the Wikipedia page, and it says that The Dark Side of the Moon is the eighth studio album of the English rock band Pink Floyd released on March 1st 1973 the record was conceived as an album that focused on the pressures faced by the band during their arduous lifestyle. And dealing with the apparent mental health problems suffered by former band member Syd Barrett, who was a part of the group in 1968.
So in my research, um, my brief research here on Pink Floyd I learned about Syd Barrett and that he was the founding member of the band who left the group and I guess he had some kind of mental illness and experimented with a lot of psychedelic drugs. Um, and he kind of disappeared from the band, but it seems like he was probably maybe the most talented one and the original member of the band and kind of helped form, form their style of exploring sonic soundscapes and free flow of consciousness and the way that he would create the lyrics and...
