Racecar
Such a simple, common word that people don't realize is a palindrome -- probably because it's a compound word, and our brains separate the words "race" and "car."

“Reviled did I live", said I, as evil I did deliver.
It is complex and it actually makes sense unlike some of the others listed here. It is a palandrome without trying overly hard to be one.

This one is great, too. The sentence ones are great, especially when they involves actors from "The Cosby Show."
