"We do not train to be merciful here. Mercy is for the weak. Here, on the street, in competition; a man confronts you, he is the enemy. An enemy deserves no mercy."

Too bad that came from an asshole of a charater ;)
Aggie,
He was a guy you love to hate. A great villain is an essential ingredient to a great movie.
Martin Kove used to be on Cagney and Lacey (a long time ago), but THIS role was the one that got you to really dislike every fiber of the guy.
(good character)
When he plays a good guy, he's decent as well.
Bob,
I've always believed that it takes a better actor to play a villain than it does to play a hero. For example, everyone fawned over Alan Alda in M*A*S*H*, but Larry Linville (Frank Burns), owned every scene he was in.
