I don’t know how to edit since I was cutting and pasting quotes, from 4 different sources there, but basically they were from Lemony Snicket (about death), Harry Potter (about power), Verdon (the past) and Orwell (the past). Then something about a Scottish pop album. Those were just random references on Google to the phrase “curious thing”.
So all those seem to be themes we could expect in this season I’d think, power, death, the past–the common element though is what’s curious is unexpected in some way.
“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?” -- Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass
