My point was not that an action has to be something performable by an actual being, but only by a possible being. (If you'll ignore my ignorance of science), seeing through walls is an actions, because there is a possible being who can do that (X-Ray vision or something). However, there is no actual being who can do that (as far as I know).

"The Germans believe that power must reveal itself in hardness and cruelty and then submit themselves gladly and with admiration[...]. They do not believe readily that there is power in meekness and calm."
