• Brenda Davis, Vesanto Melina (2013):

  "There are degrees of veganism. A pure vegetarian or dietary vegan is someone who consumes a vegan diet but doesn't lead a vegan lifestyle. Pure vegetarians may use animal products, support the use of animals in research, wear leather clothing, or have no objection to the exploitation of animals for entertainment. They are mostly motivated by personal health concerns rather than by ethical objections. Some may adopt a more vegan lifestyle as they are exposed to vegan philosophy."

• A. Breeze Harper (2011):

  "Practitioners of veganism abstain from animal consumption (dietary and non-dietary). However, the culture of veganism iself is not a monolith and is composed of many different subcultures and philosophies throughout the world, ranging from punk strict vegans for animals rights, to people who are dietary vegans for personal health reasons, to people who practice veganism for religious and spiritual reasons."

• Associated Press (2011):

  "Ethical vegans have a moral aversion to harming animals for human consumption ... though the term often is used to describe people who follow the diet, not the larger philosophy"

• Gary Francione (2010):

  "Although veganism may represent a matter of diet or lifestyle for some, ethical veganism is a profound moral and political commitment ..."

• Robert Garner (2010):

  "I have been a vegetarian all my adult life, and I am currently a dietary vegan, and I do not wear leather."

• Layli Phillips (2010):

  "While some vegans, for instance members of the Straight Edge community, demand unswerving commitment to vegan ideals and practices, many people practice some form of partial veganism. For instance, many vegans refrain from eating meat, dairy, and eggs, yet eat honey or wear leather. Other vegans shop vegan and eat vegan at home, but look the other way at a vegetarian restaurant for dishes that use a small amount of butter, cream, or cheese. ... You get the idea: for many people, veganism is a principle, not a law."

• International Vegetarian Union (2000):

  "Dietary Vegan: follows a vegan diet, but doesn't necessarily try and exclude non-food uses of animals."
