I can't believe that I forgot to mention Don Quixote.
Despite being an obvious danger to society, you can't help but laugh at his good-natured foolishness--then feel terrible when his "knighthood" is taken from him.

OMG DON QUIXOTE

God. For some reason I'm drawing this tremendous blank on books I've read. . . but I know Dumbledore is definitely one of them, just because how amazingly executed he is. Rowling having built him up as this near flawless character, then to find out in books 5, 6, and 7 how flawed and broken he is.

^ That's a great point about Dumbledore, but I definitely think that at the end of the day, Gandalf was the better wizard. ;)

Also, after beginning to re-read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, I have to add Bilbo and Frodo Baggins. :)

EDWARD CULLEN, GAIZ.
No.

Atticus Finch - To Kill A Mockingbird
Lord Henry - The Picture of Dorian Gray (his speeches leave me breathless.)
Lord Azriel - Northern Lights/The Golden Compass (What a complicated character he was!)
Satan - Paradise Lost (okay, c'mon... Milton made him so ridiculously interesting, don't hate.)
Hamlet - Hamlet ('nuff said.)

I full-heartedly agree with this sentiment. Milton took the original villain and morphed him into a very deep and interesting anti-hero in Paradise Lost. I was afraid I was the only one here at the forums who has read Paradise Lost. xD

@Jozi: Atticus Finch in To Kill A Mockingbird. =P
