Talking about old verses, just today I remembered a verse by Göthe: "... hab ich doch das Wort vergessen..." (Indeed, I forgot the word). Was he thinking about passwords, perhaps?

That was from the Magician's Apprentice. Another interesting verse from the same poem is: "Die ich rief, die Geister, werd ich nun nicht los." (The spirits which I have invoked, now I can't get rid of them.) This reference seems very fit for all kinds of modern technology!
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
