Like justrasputin says, there usually is quite a lot of work to be done before you start to really see the beauty everyone refers to. I'd like to suggest a few book about mathematics, written by mathematicians that explicitly try to capture the beauty -
By Marcus Du Sautoy (A group theorist at oxford)
By G.H. Hardy,
Also, a good collection of seminal works -
God Created the Integers
And a nice starter -
What is Mathematics
Good luck and don't give up!
Fermat's Enigma by Simon Singh.
Nature's Numbers by Ian Stewart.
A Mathematician's Apology by G.H. Hardy (sort of a pure mathematician's manifesto). I strongly recommend Apology, moreso because Hardy goes over two very basic proofs in Number Theory in a very enlightening way.
