I use book quotes for passwords (include spaces and sometimes change letters for numbers (if the stupid website requires it)), I don't forget those since they're meaningful.

I would not be surprised if huge numbers of sentences from popular books are hashed already (and put in rainbow tables)...

You might not forget the book quote, but how do you remember which one you used spaces on, which one you used numbers for letters, and which website uses which quote?
