Plato vs. Sartre

Most everyone would respond to an amazing discovery as excited, or wonder struck. Many people would feel proud, and feel a fresh, open mind to new possibilities at hand. But the prisoners in the cave of Plato's The Allegory of the Cave tell different. 

The Allegory of the Cave's prisoners are to be told to not appreciate what else the world has to offer. No prisoner in the cave would believe it until they could see it, which they can't if they keep spending their lives looking at shadows and darkness. Estella from "No Exit" would react exactly the same. See, she didn't even believe that she was where she was. She was supposedly in hell, but she believed that she did nothing wrong. Estella and a prisoner don't believe anything unless it is made true and realistic to them. 

So many people in the world don't believe or understand things until they have the most amount of proof they can get. Such as the prisoner, he won't understand anything about life and the world until he gets out of the cave. Estella wouldn't believe she was in hell until it actually appeared to be what everyone was telling her. Sometimes, seeing is believing.
