Problem wth spec chars in script

Hello

I would like to make a script which will get the line from file list (ex. passkey) and put it into further processing.
The main problem is that lines, in text file contains all specials characters, and whitespaces too, as these that was used as a extremmaly-safe passwords. I have written my passwords to .7z files on long list, but I can't find which one is propper for specific .7z file. So i am expecting "password" string and getting it line-by-line from passkey list and later each line into next 7z spawns.

Unfortunately bash stopping the run when first special character occurs on the list, and script trying to load it, going to problem

So I have created two scripts:
which I am calling ~/whiler /path/file.7z

1. 'whiler'

Code:

 1 while read line ; do
 2 echo "$line"
 3 time  expect ~/2.exp $1 "$line"
 4
 5 done<~/passkey.txt

2. and the expect cmdfile:

Code:

  1 #!/usr/bin/expect
 2 set filename [lindex $argv 1]; # Grab the first command line parameter
 3 set passkey [lindex $argv 2]; # Grab the 2nd command line parameter
 4 set timeout 1
 5 spawn 7z t $filename
 6 expect "password:"
 7 send "$klucz\r";
 8 interact

I also tried to make password list in doublequotes (") each line.

What can I do to use strings from file bypassing the injection bash ? Or maybe my scripts are bad?

Thanks for any help
