Thinking Outside the Box (No Exit Step 4)

Plato and Sartre both have very unique methods of going about this topic.  Plato sees the limitation of thinking as slaves against a wall with nothing more to live about.  What you would look forward to would be a new crack in the wall.  Your reality is shadows casted by puppeteers  nothing more.  Their solution would be to stay still, do nothing, expect nothing.  Sartre addresses the same subject by using hell.  The characters just couldn't comprehend where they were.  A basically empty room doesn't give them much.  The three characters wouldn't have much of an escape either.  Their only option would to become friendly towards one another.  A massive cave in the middle of nowhere and hell are both uses of an extended metaphor, as both are extremely hard or impossible to come by.
