Newtonian, Relativistic, or Quantum?

Hopefully, you were not referring to A. Einstein when you quoted, "Everything is relative." Einstein's theory of relativity did not say "everything is relative" as many people misquote him; it said that there is no absolute space-time coordinate system, so there are no absolute positions in time and space. All times and positions are relative.

My wife, daughter, son-in-law, Mom, sister, and brother are all relative...s.

But, yeah, everything is relative despite what Einstein said. I'm glad you get a kick out of things I've written. I get a kick out of my wife, too, but that hurts when she uses too much force. (Newtonian force, of course.)
