said "There is nothing wrong with looking at a pretty girl" on more than one Cubs broadcast.

Albert Einstein was born in Germany on March 14, 1879. He began teaching himself calculus at age 14. With a doctorate from the University of Zurich, Einstein wrote papers on electromagnetic energy, relativity, and statistical mechanics.
Einstein predicted a ray of light from a distant star would appear to bend as it passed near the sun. When an eclipse confirmed this, the London Times ran the headline, Nov. 7, 1919, “Revolution in science – New theory of the Universe – Newtonian ideas overthrown.”
In 1921, Albert Einstein won the Nobel Prize in physics.
Describing the theory of relativity, Albert Einstein said: “When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute – and it’s longer than any hour. That’s relativity.”

so, what are the 35 words?
One of the people in the party that was giving him the tour said "but it's all relative, Professor Einstein."
Relativity is doing a bit more than just sitting if that pretty girl is your cousin.
Oh, THOSE 35 words. :)
lool up 2 posts its the 35 words that start with “when a man sits....
That’s more of an analogy than an explanation. There are two theories of relativity—it’s the 2nd one that made him famous, not the one he’s describing.
The assistant who boarded with Einstein told the following story:
“One morning Einstein saw me shaving with soap and hot water. He always shaved with only water. I convinced him to use soap one morning. Einstein got this look on his face at the marvel of soap. He said that that was the smoothest shave he had ever had. The next morning he went back to only water to shave.”
That is an indication of some kind of mental issue. Maybe Asperber’s Syndrome. I do not know. That is simply a guess.

It was an attempt at a joke that I abandoned. :)
Relativity, in 29 words:
The theory that states the astonishing amount of “close relatives” one suddenly discovers upon winning a lottery jackpot is directly proportional to the amount of money in the jackpot.
Oh wait, no, that was Descartes.
Technically, it is 37. There are 2 contractions...
R = kQ
I don’t think those were Einstein’s words.
He said if the pretty girl sits on your lap for an hour .....
Someone tried to make his words politically correct.
Einstein failed to adjust his theory to include the variable used in his example.
I.e. the frequency of consciousness and its influence upon perception of reality and time.
Time is not a function of the speed of light. It is s function of the frequency of consciousness divided by the speed of light.
Welcome to the club...I blame mine on old age...;-)
