Still another approach is to use YIDDISH words.  Even if you tell someone
what your password is, odds are they can't spell it!  We had great success
with that when I was at the Air Force Data Services Center.  Our password
while I was there was tsuris (which means "plenty headaches", or worries)
very appropriate for a government UNIX V6 system!  I do acknowledge that
this approach won't work for everyone.
