1、I've done enough for a while and people get fed up of seeing you, but apart from that, although I'm young, I need a bit of rest. You could say I have become a house husband. It's not a new man thing, it's just largely a boring man who doesn't mind staying in the house thing. ----James McAvoy

　　2、I take a lot of pride in being myself. I'm comfortable with who I am.
我做我自己感到很骄傲。我很喜欢现在的自己。 ----James McAvoy

　　3、I wanted to be a doctor at one point and I also wanted to be a pilot. I think if you grow up in a dodgy area, reality often beats down those ambitions as you get older. But with me that never really happened.
我曾想做一名医生，我还想过成为飞行员。我觉得如果你在困难的环境中长大，随着年龄的增长，现实总会把那些梦想打倒。但对我来说，这样的事不曾有过。 ----James McAvoy

　　4、Fear is really powerful;it's really useful to me.
恐惧有强大的力量，它对我有很大的帮助。 ----James McAvoy

　　5、I considered becoming a priest very seriously. I wanted to travel the world. By the time I turned 16, I realized I was only in it for selfish reasons. And, more importantly, I didn't want to sacrifice the ladies!
我曾很认真地考虑过当一个传教士。我想要到世界各地旅行。16岁的时候，我意识到我想做传教士的原因都很自私。而且，更重要的是，我不想牺牲掉女孩子带来的快乐！ ----James McAvoy

　　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. ----James McAvoy

　　7、Filmmaking is a miracle of collaboration. ----James McAvoy

　　8、I think the most romantic thing you can do is just turn up. Turn up when it's difficult for you. Travel halfway around the world or just up the road. Whatever it is, just be there.
我觉得你能做的浪漫的事就是燃起激情。遇到困难的时候迎难而上。环游一半地球，或者哪怕就是开车一路前行。不管你想去哪里，去到那里就好。 ----James McAvoy

　　9、I'm probably more dangerous in a car than I am on a motorbike; on a bike I'm very mindful of the fact that if you make a mistake, you're dead.
可能我在一辆汽车上比在一辆摩托车上更危险；我始终记得这个事实：如果你犯了错（当你开车时），你就死了。 ----James McAvoy

　　10、When I started acting, I thought if I got one or two jobs a year I'd be lucky. So yeah, my career has gone so much farther than I ever suspected it would, and as such I feel lucky for everything I get. I feel thankful and grateful.
当我开始演戏的时候，我想如果我一年能得到一到两个角色，就很幸运了。所以，是的，我的事业比我想象过的顺利太多，因此我对所得到的一切都感到幸运。我心怀感恩。 ----James McAvoy

　　11、A story about my life would be utterly dull.
关于我的生活的故事一定会非常无聊。 ----James McAvoy

　　12、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.
我不知道为什么我得到了很多年代戏的角色。斯蒂芬·弗雷（《光彩年华》导演）说我长了一张年代戏的脸，我看起来像是19世纪20年代的人。 ----James McAvoy

　　13、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.
当人们（刚开始）靠近我时他们通常（看起来）很好，但随着时间的流逝你发现有些人并不是那么好，有些人一直都不好。 ----James McAvoy

　　14、One of the weird things about Hollywood is we're all imposters; we're all just glammed up.
好莱坞其中一个奇怪的事是我们都是冒名顶替的人，我们还都具有迷人的外表 ----James McAvoy

　　15、I don't know why we're not interested in seeing good people. I think we like seeing good people, but only if bad things happen to them. Which is weird, isn't it?
我不知道为什么我们不对看见好人感兴趣。我认为我们只在坏事发生在好人的身上才会乐意看到他们。这很奇怪，不是么？ ----James McAvoy
