“Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.”

Now, the question is...what kind of clock was Einstein using?

"seems like a minute" appears to refer to a "A clock used to measure own rate"

a biological clock maybe...

I mean, what other kind of clock can be used to... "seems like a minute"????
