perl -E 'say "Hello, World"'
OK, beat me for it

I thought about that during the day. These examples are good, and in fact I think that they may be used as the first examples of Perl code.
They slightly break the idea of showing pure Perl code, but it is better in that you don't need even a file to save the programme in. Just run it from the command line.
