Try communicating that sentence to a human... better yet, try remembering it. Worse, hackers have no problem guessing such a password since the 'clever' substitutions; zero = o, @ = a, 1 = i, 5 = s... are both predictable and automatable. Any decent hacker will figure these kinds of passwords out very easily.

Most password generators produce garbage and indeed many registration forms demand it. But it's not based on science, rather on fear and ignorance.

Several random readable words are just as safe as a garbage password, with the advantage that they can be both easily remembered and easily transferred.
