I ask the user for a fairly long line in a song, or maybe a poem, that

century translation of Homer's Odyssey.

I use the first letter, randomly upper-cased if necessary, of the
words and the punctuation for the password. Maybe hang a couple
memorable digits on the end. It's gibberish, but memorable, and not
susceptible to a dictionary attack.

The best I've seen so far is a couple lines from Mozart's opera "Don
Giovanni", from well inside the aria "La ci darem la mano" -- in
Italian.
