Youre going to memorize a unique sentence for each service?
A method like this allows you to memorize only 4 words of arbitrary length, a number, and a simple algorthm to yield unique passwords for each service.
You can also add a standard phrase to all of them that is shared between them all just to make them more complex

yes, it is what I do now. there was a time when people memorized 10, 15 phone numbers.
Also you can't really "forget" a password, because it's connected to the name of the site. Very clever
