You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view...until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.
People generally see what they look for, and hear what they listen for.
Atticus told me to delete the adjectives and I'd have the facts.
Things are always better in the morning.
Try fighting with your head for a change... it’s a good one, even if it does resist

The quote "Hell isn't other people. Hell is yourself" is often attributed to the philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre, rather than Ludwig Wittgenstein. Sartre was a prominent existentialist philosopher known for his ideas on existentialism, freedom, and the nature of consciousness.
Ludwig Wittgenstein, on the other hand, was an Austrian-British philosopher who made significant contributions to the fields of logic, philosophy of language, and philosophy of mind. While Wittgenstein did not specifically make this statement, he did explore the nature of the self, language, and the limits of language in his philosophical works, such as the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus and the Philosophical Investigations.
It is possible that the quote in question has been misattributed to Wittgenstein, as it is more commonly associated with Sartre. If you are looking for specific quotes or ideas from Wittgenstein's works, I would be happy to help clarify or provide more information.

I have never come across this quotation in anything Wittgenstein wrote or in any of the biographical information I’ve read about him (a rather substantial amount).
The quote “Hell is other people” is from Jean-Paul Sartre’s famous play Huis Clos (1944). It’s unlikely, but not impossible, that Wittgenstein might have heard it discussed and offered the rebuttal you mention in your question (which sounds like Dostoevsky—an important man for Ludwig). Still, I suspect that the timing is wrong. The play was produced in Nazi-occupied Paris during WWII and Wittgenstein was at Cambridge and working in a hospital in London during those years. By the time that French existentialism made its way to places like Great Britain and America, Wittgenstein was dead.

Huis Clos
Imagine a beautiful building.
As you walk through its doors you see a reception desk.
The receptionist is not there, but by the desk is a box of chocolate.
You look around, reach out and take one.
A person you hadn’t noticed right behind you says “Wow! I’ve always wanted to try that chocolate! How is it?” and grabs one too.
Now you have an accomplice. You chat about how good the chocolate is.
Mmmm. What a good day this is turning out to be.
But, wait.
What if the person you hadn’t noticed behind you instead says “How could you? How could you take something that doesn’t belong to you? I can’t believe you just grabbed that!”
Now you feel uncomfortable.
The receptionist returns to the desk. She glares at you.“That was not yours.”
You stand there feeling awful.
When Sartre said “hell is other people” he noted that we cannot really know ourselves without taking into consideration how we are regarded by others.
If we are judged by another, it becomes a part of our own opinion of ourselves.
Others are so important to us, we cannot complete the puzzle of who we are without them.
This is why he concludes "hell is other people".
"Hell is other people" is a great quote by Sartre, but it's not the one I like the most.
Here is my favorite:
"Like all dreamers, I mistook disenchantment for truth."
