Where is the difference? The method is defined in a class - and an instance
is created from that class.

This works as expected:

class ExistentialCrisis:
    def __init__(self, text):
        self.spam = text
        print 'In the constructor of the %s class' % self.__class__.__name__


ExistentialCrisis("egal")
