Is it legal to list the self development experts that have inspired my product online

[Danobrien]

I have created a self development product, and I wish to list the people and materials that have inspired the content. Is this legal?

Many thanks

Dan

Here are a few "US laws" which may be of use:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newtons_law
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murphy's_law
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin's_Law
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_large_numbers
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_gravity

(Although to be fair, I think most of these also apply to Canada).

If not for gravity and Canada, the USA would end up at the North Pole

OP, I suggest you get the consent of those you admire and wish to acknowledge in writing.
If I were the great philosopher "Mary Sunshine", and had many great self development products which have sold extremely well through the years, and someone "thanked me" for my influence on their site, (in which they are trying to promote and sell their products) I may feel that this person is just using my name because they know a google search of my name, *might* bring up their own name and website, thereby profiting off of my hard work and success.
