Quote by jean paul sartre in one of his plays. Doesn't mean "other people suck and make my life worse" but rather think of it like this:

You're in a house of mirrors. The mirrors are other people's judgement of you. When you look at a mirror, you're viewing yourself from the judgment and perception of other people. All fine and good if the mirror is like one you have at home in your bathroom.

Now let's say the mirror looks like this:

The view you have of yourself is distorted. You can only see yourself as the object of other people's distorted perception of you. You're trapped within them and you're in hell.
Have self awareness and shape your own self image that isn't only defined by other people and you won't be trapped in your own hell.

yup.

To live in suspension of the look.

Love the curtain line of that play when Garcin comes to his senses that he is stuck forever alongside them because they believe they’re trapped when in reality they can leave — but choose not to because they need that other persons look and judgement.
