My $0.02 Written by BarbaraB (1/27/2004 4:09 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Less agreeable to jilt, penned by B. Michelle

]"Thank you, Sir, but a less agreeable man would satisfy me. We must not all expect Jane's good fortune."

I always thought these two sentences were to be read and interpreted together. Therefore the agreeable man would be Mr. Bingley and Lizzy is saying that one less agreeable than Bingley would be sufficient for her. She is not expecting to have the luck Jane had in attracting such a man with as lively and personable personality as Bingley.
