The correct statements about stellar evolution are:
1. **Massive stars evolve more quickly than average stars.**
2. **Average stars evolve more slowly than massive stars.**
Massive stars have shorter lifecycles due to their higher mass and the greater gravitational forces at play, leading to quicker fusion processes and more rapid evolution compared to average stars.
