It is Dumbledore. Not only has Dumbledore achieved far more in magic than Voldemort, but Dumbledore has something Voldemort does not have; love. I know it's kinda corny, but the power of love is so great, and Dumbledore has this. Voldemort does not, and it is largely because of this that Voldemort comes to his downfall. Sure, Voldemort may have gained more power than Dumbledore, but that is only because Dumbledore (in his later years) was not power-hungry. Dumbledore had the opportunity to become just as powerful if not more than Voldemort had, but he refused it. Dumbledore is also much wiser than Voldemort.

It depends on your interpretation of great. Great as in greatness, wisdom, knowledge, responsibility, or powerful and all feared. I think before Dumbledore and Voldemort, the greatest Wizard of all time (and not only in Harry Potter but other pieces of fiction) is Merlin. I mean they always say his name (in Harry Potter), you know like, instead of "oh my gosh" or "goodness" or "golly" or "heck yea" or something they say "oh Merlin" or "merlin's beard"...right?
but anyway, in my opinion, Dumbledore is greater than Voldemort 'cause even Voldemort fears him.

well between voldemort and dumbledore i believe that dumbledore is the gratest... coz he's really powerful, knows magic that voldemort doesn't (e.g. the deathly hollows), isn't blinded when he grows up by his ambition, can understand the others (while voldemort haven't even realized that snape was still in love with lilly), respects "small" things (like fairytales, the magic elfshes can perform) ...

I think that no one is the best. All our good for different reasons.
Voldemort... This guy is so feared people dont say his name, he's great at magic and he made himself semi-immortal.
Dumbledore... is the guy Tom fears. He helped bring him down, he made so many additions to the wizarding world,he had fans and friends (touche Voldemort!) and he ended up a good person even wiht hsi troubled path.
Harry... ended it all. He survived a direct killing curse without Lilly's protection, he was ready to sacrifice his life, he has a stable sense of what evil is, he's won against voldemort quite a few times and he has many friends. I mean, this guy has the biggest hear.

Between the powerful guy wiht the heart, the powerful guy who is feared, and the powerful-helpful one, its hard to pick!

Voldemort can hurt Harry without touching him.


I know what your thinking, "its only because blah blah blah"




but still


people cringe if they just hear his name.



he can be lifeless and not die (after he got hit by the killing curse)



he can drink unicorn blood and not go insane and he doesn't even care.


He's not afraid of the ministry of magic.


he got away from everyone without being caught (well, except for that one time)


he has the awesomest potter puppet pal


He actually makes a joke or two in the books.

Dumbledore for sure, he's older and has proved that the experiences he's had through his life has made him more wise, also the decisions he makes prove that aswell. Therefore he posseses more knowledge and if you disagree, pick up a dictionary. OH, better yet I'll ablige:

Wise' adj having intelligence and knowledge; sensible. wisdom knowledge, learning; erudition.

He's a professor at a school. There I proved my point.

Dumbledore, The only one he ever feared. While everyone feared Voldermort, he feared Dumbledore. That meant a lot, because Voldemort was a very powerful wizard and still, he only feared Dumbledore. And Dumbledore is greater than Voldemort because even though Dumbledore could have became a dark wizard, with more power than Voldemort had, he didn't.

Jeosilver said:
First off: the greatest wizard of ALL TIME is Merlin. That's why it's the Order of Merlin.

Secondly: In the duel between Dumbledore and Voldemort, going by the books, Dumbledores concentration is split 4-7 ways the whole time! And he's still beating the crap out of Voldemort who only has to pay attention to Dumbledore. Plus the fact that Dumbledore was the only person who could ever beat an owner of the Elder Wand in the duel, and that he goes his whole life being undefeated, there is no greater wizard than Dumbledore (except for Merlin).

The only reason Dumbledore dies is so that Snape can get deeper into the circle of Death Eaters, and so Malfoy won't be punished by Voldemort. And even then, in the seventh book it says that Dumbledore still never lost a single duel in all his life! He is murdered, and is still undefeated! That's not easy to do!

Actually, while you have a very good point, Snape's cover wasn't the only reason Dumbledore died. Dumbledore was going to die anyway because of the Dark Curse on the Gaunt Ring. ;)

ObsessedWithHP said:
Well, Harry defeated Voldemort, so obviously Voldemort can be defeated. Dumbledore's really powerful, but he has some weaknesses. At the end of book 7, he said that he was not the right man to unite the Deathly Hallows. He said that Harry was the best person to do that, so I think Harry is the greatest wizard of all time.

Helena-B-Carter said:
Dumbledore without a doubt. It wasn't that Dumbledore hadn't the potential to be the most powerful wizard of all time, it was that he chose not too. His power, I believe, is greater than Voldemort's but Dumbledore didn't mingle in dark magic which would give Voldemort an advantage. Dumbledore actually did mingle in dark magic when his friend Grindelward was beside him but the reality of his sister dying brought him to realise.
So in a way the power of love is stronger than the love of power.
If Dumbledore had become a dark wizard, he'd bring far more damage than Voldemort, and I doubt anyone'd be able to bring him down because he is cleverer, wiser, more cunning, and isn't arrogant. It's voldemort's arrogance that caused him to overlook the fact there may be a spy amongst his deatheaters.
The only reason why Voldemort seems more powerful is because he's done bad things - terrible things whilst Dumbledore hasn't. Meaning Voldemort showed his power for the world to see while Dumbledore kept his hidden. Dumbledore is more powerful, that's why he was the only wizard Voldemort was scared of. But time has weakened Dumbledore and he doesn't have all the dark magic and objects (horcruxes) to aid him, so he slowly grew to be less powerful than Voldemort.

Dumbledore is THE greatest wizard of ALL time and not his worst critic can deny this fact. He won all the awards as a student, was the most distinguished wizard internationally, he gave up his career for his family, inspire of being the most deserving candidate and being offered several times, he did not become the minister for magic, he defeated the greatest dark wizard of his time, he defeated the possessor of the Elder wand, he was the only one who Voldermort feared, the most loved and respected Head master of Hogwarts, he taught Harry Potter everything he Harry knew, he made Hogwarts the safest place on earth, not even the ministery could send him to Azkaban when he did not want to go, he taught Harry everything Harry ever learnt, he planned for Voldermort's death, it was he who planned everything that everyone did which led to Voldermort's death.
So it is only stupid to call anyone other than the greatest the greatest.
