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?

There’s no technical reason, no. Blank spaces can be handled just like any other character – it’s simply that it never became customary to bother handling them.
