Note: While not technically a one-liner, you could just put a literal newline in a quoted command, e.g. python -c 'import sys on the first line, and because the ' wasn't paired, you can continue, entering for p in sys.path: print(p)' on the second line. Doesn't rely on bash-specific functionality like $'', and while technically not a one-liner, when we're talking about scripting languages, "one-liner" often just means "putting a whole script in the command line", which this does.
