+<blockquote>We believe Chrysalis was the most important alternative effort that was, perhaps, ever made in the eros-island. It was first and foremost its collectivist mode of operation, even if some people were carrying the burden while others did little more than talking. It was what we believe was absolute democracy in making every decision concerning its operation and even its closure. But apart from these, there is also the fact, the most important one for sure, that Chrysalis was a political space with an intense political-alternative activity. There is a great deal that happened in that space and a great deal that started there.
-Chrysallida was, in out opinion, the most alternative attempt that perhaps ever occurred, on the eros-island [ερώνησο]. It was first of all the collectivised mode of its operation, even if some were overburdened while others stopped at promises. It was, in our view, the absolute democracy in the making of every decision that concerned its operation, even its closure. Beyond these, of course, is also the fact, clearly the most important one, that Chrysallida was a political space with an intense political-alternative activity. Many were the things that happened in that space and many the things that started from there.
-The initiative against social racism and the motorcycle march, the participation to the support of the conscious objector Gianni Parpa, the event against armament and the Defence tax, the present magazine that was always released in relation to Chrysallida, countless posters and leaflets, there was also the mobilization against the beating up of citizens by the riot police and recently the mobilization against the demolition of old housing as well as the RIALTO cinema. Lastly, it was the recent event against the Gulf war, the continuous war of the walls and the formulation of an alternative discourse and the expression of a holistic anti-nationalist view and possibility.((Magazine Train in the City, [[el:magazines:traino:no_8|Issue 8]], pages 14-15)) </WRAP>
