I'll second that.

..I wanted to say, that I would never ever save the Password, I would infact try to relogin each time session should be created.
Sensitive data and information must be saved and should never be left anywhere. Encryption can be reversed, and papers can be joined together like a puzzle.

It depends.. I mean, sometimes the same policies to enforce the security and by exposure security breaches. If the policy says: to change twice a month the password, put at least one upper char, at least one lower char, at least one number, at least one punctuation sign, at least one prime number lower than 500, cannot be related to your or your wife or relatives name, last name, date of birth, position, address, information leaked in the internet.. and different to the previous 20 passwords...
Eventually, you will forgot the shifting passwords. Therefore, if you have to manage those policies for 20 servers, databases, and systems; finally you will put the password in some place.
I agree that the password should be just in your mind, but also I am against the extreme hard password policies, due they are useless.
It would be better put a poem as a password, or a quote. It is very good explained by XKCD:

I wonder how many would go for that option.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

What's written down are hints that only have meaning to me.
Some of these are context sensitive, as well, the version for Mrs. Wife's account and mine might have the same hint but it has different meaning.
I also lie a lot, but the login interfaces tend to believe my honest looks.

I memorize all my passwords, never write them down and keep forgetting them.

That's why they have the inclusive "Other" option.
You know, for those of us who otherwise don't follow the norms of life.
Dig it.
