Is the man of action really a man of action?

Think about it. The underground speaks of the wall and how "men of action" know it's there and are soothed due to its presence. Well if this is the case, then they are no longer men of action. They just want the satisfaction of being noticed. I think this is contradictory and somewhat ironic. He still believes he is superior though. And this is because he will never encounter the wall because he will see all the different points of views and not "take action". Today in class we got into detail about the barrier that everyone wants and needs in a way. I think this wall can be both good, as well as bad, and can cause controversy. This occurred with the topic of religion. There is a wall that was broken down by Darwin, but there is still faith behind religion. It is not there to be scientifically analyzed.
