Poem Fix from high school days

Byron once said:
"There's so much good in the worst of us
and so much bad in the best of us,
That it doesn't behoove any of us
To talk about the rest of us."

Joaquin Miller then wrote a poem titled, From Byron

In Men whom men condemn as ill
I find so much of goodness still,
In men whom men pronounce divine
I find so much of sin and blot,
I do not dare to draw a line
Between the two, where GOD has not.

Hank Williams much later wrote:

"You need to mind your own business
so you won't be minding mine."
