Huh. Now that is an interesting thought. He's comparing art to religion in that everyone has the capacity to enjoy, appreciate, and be a receptive audience to art, but it takes someone especially endowed to create art, to make it, to notice something artistic and capture it so that others can receive it.
He says the same is true for religion and I think that's a very interesting thought that i want to pursue more.

"For a manifestation of the influence exerted by the psychical upon the physical we need in fact go no further than the power of our will to move our body-the power, that is, of a spiritual cause to bring about a mechanical effect. There assuredly is an absolutely insoluble riddle, and it is only the fact that we have grown so used to it that prevents it from seeming a miracle to us."

Gregory of Nyssa "But if one asks for the interpretation or description or explanation of the divine nature we shall not deny that in such a science as this we are unlearned...For there is no way of comprehending the indefinable as it is by a scheme of words. For the Divine is too noble and too lofty to be indicated by a name: and we have learned to honour by silence that which transcends reason and thought."

I think I already noted this, but it's so good I have to again:
