Vegan Health and Fitness Magazine

"Veganism is a way of living which excludes all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, the animal kingdom., and includes a reverence for life. It applies to the practice of living on the products of the plant kingdom to the exclusion of flesh, fish, fowl, eggs, honey, animal milk and its derivatives, and encourages the use of alternatives for all commodities derived wholly or in part from animals." -quote by Donald Watson, who coined the term in 1944 (although there have always been vegans around, starting with Adam & Eve)
