Is there a technical reason why blank spaces can’t be used in password since you always have to hit submit afterwards anyway?

Question

Just reading in that long password are better than complex ones. Wouldn’t it be better if our passwords were long memorable quotes like “Now are the times that try men’s souls” instead of something like Be$ty78?

YUP. 

passphrases are way more inherently secure (as of today) due to length over complexity. Nothing stopping you from using that exact password other than needing to type it out every single time. It’s all fun and games until you have to type that in for the 5th or 6th successive time. 20ish characters is all you need really to become brute force prohibitive entirely, but also be memorable.
