"Fair is foul and foul is fair. Hover in the fog and filthy air."
The clown walked on the stage and started being funny. Shakespeare often introduces comic relief at very tense moments: after the Macbeths have murdered Duncan in Macbeth, after the Capulets have discovered their daughter apparently dead in Romeo and Juliet, after Hamlet has agreed to fall for the trap set for him by Claudius and Laertes in Hamlet.
It is a line from Shakespeare's Macbeth. One of the witches is being calle (presumably meowed at) by her familiar, a gray cat named "Graymalkin," and is called offstage.

Shakespeare introduces the idea of opposites being the same through the theme of paradox in several of his plays, such as in Romeo and Juliet with the famous line "O brawling love, O loving hate!" This idea is also presented through characters who embody contradictory traits, like Macbeth who is both valiant and ruthless.

Macduff fulfills the witches' prophecy by being born through a cesarean section, meaning he was not technically "born of woman" in the traditional sense. This loophole allows him to successfully defeat Macbeth in the play "Macbeth" by William Shakespeare.
