I'm not sure a nominalist would accept such distinctions though [between
'act' and 'object'. Take love -- there's 'loving' -- and there's the lover and
the beloved. But essentially, there's _loving_ (the process).
Hence a favourite dictum with nominalists: "The proof of the pudding is in
the eating".
