Now, if you study Einstein famouse quote: 'When you sit with a pretty girl for two hours you think it's only a minute, but when you sit on a hot stove for a minute you think it’s two hours. That's relativity." --Albert Einstein You will find all the same elements contained in the 'Twin Paradox'. Relativity is "Einstein's Philosophy". Relativity is in fact.. just a philosophy.
