ⓘ Lead on, MacDuff Cette phrase ("après toi, MacDuff") est une déformation d'un vers de Macbeth de Shakespeare, dans un passage où Macbeth défie à l'épée son ennemi MacDuff en prononçant les mots lay on, MacDuff ("frappe, MacDuff"). On utilise la version modifiée de cette phrase de façon humoristique lorsque l'on demande à quelqu'un d'ouvrir la marche.
