This quote is most certainly based on poetry from the Gulistan (or "Rose Garden") of Sa'di (or at least this is the earliest example this researcher was able to find). The book is from 1259 CE, so this will predate any other attribution out there. At one time, my full answer to this question was available online, but the Stumpers library reference archive changed to Wombat, and I couldn't find my original answer in this new format. The original source for this saying reads:
I never lamented about the vicissitudes of time or complained of the turns of fortune except on the occasion when I was barefooted and unable to procure slippers. But when I entered the great mosque of Kufah with a sore heart and beheld a man without feet I offered thanks to the bounty of God, consoled myself for my want of shoes and recited: 'A roast fowl is to the sight of a satiated man Less valuable than a blade of fresh grass on the table And to him who has no means nor power A burnt turnip is a roasted fowl.'

The only game I know of is the one for the PS2, Xbox, and Gamecube. It's simple: just look for the "Hero guide" in each level (a sonic character.) If you press start you can switch guides, the hero is in blue. Complete their missions until you get to the final level, Final Haunt. Complete Sonic's mission and you will get the sappiest, goody-two-shoes ending possible.
