Hawaiian music is beautiful and simple.

Hawaii is paradise. It sounds cheesy to say it, but there's music in the air there.

I can't even speak Hawaiian, but if you go there and listen to a Hawaiian song, you get captured because it's so beautiful, like the melody is just gorgeous and you know Bob Marley is on the radio every single day. It's very reggae-influenced down there. Basically, you haven't been to paradise if you haven't been to Hawaii.

I grew up in a musical family; the majority of my growing up was done in Hawaii. It's what we do. You sing, you dance, you play ukulele and you drink.

Hawaii is so complex; there are so many points of view, and there are so many experiences to see and to find.

I feel like being into the beat of your own drum has become too prominent in the culture.

I go to an all-Hawaiian school, and we learn everything about being Hawaiian. We have a really deep respect for the water and the land. We say, 'mauka to makai,' mountains to ocean. I believe if you take care of the ocean, the ocean will take care of you in return.

Hawaii is a beautiful place to bring up a family.

Being in Hawaii, it's almost impossible not to be fit, I think.

I would love to go to Hawaii and do 'Hawaii Five-0,' because who doesn't want to work in Hawaii?
