1、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
2、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
3、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
4、I still take work if I think it's good. If I like the script I'll do it. If I don't I won't.

5、Filmmaking is a miracle of collaboration. ----James McAvoy
6、Distance is a bad excuse for not having a good relationship with somebody. It's the determination to keep it going or let it fall by the wayside; that's the real reason that the relationships continue.
距离不是无法和某人维持亲密关系的好借口。维持关系或是半途而废,都是由决心决定的。决心才是一段关系能够维持下去的真正原因。 ----James McAvoy
7、I play football once or twice a week. I eat pretty healthy. I'm in fairly good shape most of the time.
我每星期踢一到两次足球。我的饮食挺健康的。我大多数时候体型都很好。 ----James McAvoy
8、Basically every character I've ever played I've based entirely on internal conflict. And I love doing that because I think it's very human.
基本上来说,我扮演每个角色时候的表演都完全基于内心冲突。我喜欢这么做,因为我觉得能显示出人性。 ----James McAvoy
9、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
10、I've played a lot of very posh sort of noble or aristocratic English people which is nothing like what I am so I feel that there is quite a lot distance there and have played a little bit far away from myself.
我扮演过很多雅致、高贵或者有贵族气派的英国人,他们都不像我,所以我觉得他们离我有着很长的距离。 ----James McAvoy
11、I don't mind playing somebody who's not likable or makes the audience feel slightly conflicted.
我不介意扮演不招人喜欢的角色,也不太介意让观众的内心感到有点矛盾冲突。 ----James McAvoy
12、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
13、I don't really... go to 'the opening of an envelope.' I don't really turn up to all the events you know what I mean? 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. ----James McAvoy
14、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
15、I like playing a variety of characters. I feel like I've been able to play different kinds of characters - I've done a lot of period pieces - but I've never had to play the same type of character too much. ----James McAvoy
16、I try to keep my life low key and I don't like going to parties unless they're thrown by a friend of mine or they're to do with a project I'm in or it's because I've been nominated for an award.
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。 ----James McAvoy
17、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
18、Nobody can be whatever they want to be. No kid can do whatever they want to do. It's a total lie. But they have the right to try and do whatever they want to do. That's their right to aim to do whatever they want to do.
没有人可以成为他想成为的任何人。没有哪个小孩可以做他想做的任何事。那些话都是骗人的。但人们有权利尝试去做他们想做任何的事。他们的权利是怀有梦想。 ----James McAvoy
19、Marriage is an ongoing thing man. You continue to work at it. But it's joyful. And joyous. I don't care if people are living without a marriage certificate. It's just about people in some way saying to each other 'I commit to you. I will help you in this life.' ----James McAvoy
20、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
21、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. ----James McAvoy
22、I think fear is one of the natural states of most actors to be honest.
实话说,我认为恐惧是大多数演员的自然状态之一。 ----James McAvoy
23、For me Charles Xavier is a monk. He's like a selfless egoless almost sexless force for the betterment of humanity and mortality.

24、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
25、I'm instinctively very suspicious and guarded and I try to counteract it so much. I find reason allows you to be open and my only sort of ambition in life is to try and be as open as possible.
我本性疑心重又谨慎,我非常努力地尝试着克服这点。我会发现一些可以让自己更放得开的理由,我人生最大的抱负就是尽可能地开放。(嘴巴上是豪放派,其实比谁都保守...) ----James McAvoy
26、Because technically actors are just public servants really. They just tell stories because people need to be told stories. That's all it is. And yet we get treated as though we're important.
理论上演员其实仅仅只是人民公仆。他们讲故事的原因是人们愿意听故事。就是如此而已。但现在我们被追捧的好像我们很重要似的。 ----James McAvoy
27、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
28、Film sets are a strange place but an exciting place. I do love my work; I really enjoy going to work. But if you just spend all your time on film sets or even on stage you can become a Michael Jackson figure living in your own little universe. ----James McAvoy
29、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
30、The minute you start to strategize too much the more you start to think you're in control of your own fate. And you're not really.
你策划的越多,你就越发觉得你能掌控自己的命运。但是你并不能,真的。 ----James McAvoy
