　　3、I don't know why I get cast in a lot of period pieces. Stephen Fry told me that I had a face for period, that I look like someone from 1920.

　　5、Film sets are a strange place, but an exciting place. I do love my work; I really enjoy going to work.

　　6、I remember that it was never that difficult for me to get a director to look up and pay attention to me. Mind you, I don't know if that's necessarily charm. But I've played roles where my character has to be charming and I've found it quite easy to do. I think some of it is in my bones, but some of it is more deliberate. ----《BrainQuote和詹姆斯麦卡沃伊吧——一美的语录James McAvoy Quotes》

If I'm involved, I'll go, and if there's a good friend who needs support, I'll go, but otherwise... I don't go. I'm probably just a bit like my grandparents; I like staying in. ----《BrainQuote和詹姆斯麦卡沃伊吧——一美的语录James McAvoy Quotes》

　　13、I generally get challenged; I haven't been typecast, which is really, really, nice. It's not something that every actor gets, really. It's luxury. Most actors are capable of it, but they aren't afforded the opportunity to express their variety. ----《BrainQuote和詹姆斯麦卡沃伊吧——一美的语录James McAvoy Quotes》

　　14、People come up to me and they're usually nice, but as it goes on you realise that some people aren't nice. Some people are not nice at all.

我努力让自己的生活保持低调。我不喜欢参加聚会，除非是我的朋友举办的，或是和我参与的电影电视有关，要不就是我被某个奖项提名了。 ----《BrainQuote和詹姆斯麦卡沃伊吧——一美的语录James McAvoy Quotes》
