Clean Quote by Jennifer Aniston

“Relationships are two people; everyone is accountable. A lot goes into a relationship coming together, and a lot goes into a relationship falling apart. Even if it's 98 percent the other person's fault, it's 2 percent yours… You can only clean up your side of the street.” quote by Jennifer Aniston
