“Pendell's corner
Sertürner isolated her in 1804 and gave her the name of the god of sleep. She is the molecule that proved alkaloids existed; she is the prototype of every opioid that came after; she is the standard the modern pharmacopeia uses to measure the analgesic potency of newer cousins. Opium remembered itself in her, and the rest of the field is footnote.
