The Ancients

Friedrich Schlegel (1772-1829), "Fragmente," Athenaeum 1.2 (1798) 3-146 (at 39; tr. Peter Firchow):
Up to now everyone has managed to find in the ancients what he needed or wished for: especially himself.

Jeder hat noch in den Alten gefunden, was er brauchte, oder wünschte; vorzüglich sich selbst.
