Madam Curie started her research that led to a Nobel Prize when she was 28. Einstein was 26 when he 9 his world-changing Theory of Relativity. Well, 10 of that. Yet I wondered if those "best years" were true in other 11 . Then how about this in 12 ? Surely it needs the wisdom of 13 to  make a good leader. Perhaps it does, but look when these people 14 their careers. Winston Churchill was elected to the House of Commons at the age of 26.
