I used to open a text editor and mash on the keyboard until I had an 8-12char password. I'd then type that sequence out again 10-20 times until it was burned into my memory. Then I close the editor without saving it :) Let your subconscious "muscle-memory" remember the password for you! Bonus point: if someone tries to coerce you into revealing your password, you honestly won't know what it is without typing it out. This doesn't seem to scale beyond doing it a few times as they get hard to remember, but it can make for a few secure email/banking passwords.
