Based on the principles of stellar evolution, the correct statements are:

1. **Massive stars evolve more quickly than average stars.**
2. **Average stars evolve more slowly than massive stars.**

Massive stars have shorter lifespans compared to average stars (like our Sun) because they burn through their nuclear fuel at a much faster rate.
