I have been kicking these notes around on my desktop for some time now, and wondered if anyone had any to add. I had some more written down somewhere but I can't find them.
Queens Blade: Modesty is the first casualty of battle.
Shangri-la: Transvestites Rule. Also watch out for pre-pubescent day traders.
Strike Witches: Japanese girls oshiri can be used as flight control surfaces.
Oreimo: Dedication to H-games results in mastership of school, sports, professional modeling and complete inability to relate to a sibling with the patience of a saint.
Hanasaku Iroha: Avoid taking a bath with your grandma and friends at the same time.
NGE: The only thing better for global defense than a dysfunctional widower is his alienated offspring and tsundere peer also with daddy issues. Also Colonel is the highest rank in Japan.
Please Teacher: If you want to bone your teacher being comatose is a good start.
No 6: If you want good parenting find a dog.
Ouran: Boys are sexier than girls by far, and even more so are cross-dressing single-parent dads because they can make a living at it.

Gurren Lagann: If you believe in the me who believes in you hard enough, the laws of physics are irrelevant.
Stiens;Gate: Lab coat moe is a very real and very awesome thing.
Fate/Stay Night: King arthur was a girl.
Sengoku Basara: Japanese history was a lot more interesting and flashy then I had thought.
Red Line: I can want a blu-ray so much that it hurts
Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei: Suicidal teachers are hilarious.
FLCL: Guitars are excellent weapons.
Hellsing: Vampire Nazi's are out to destroy the U.K., also vampires are still cool.

Funny, I learned that humans suck.

Oh, oh, I've got one.
I've learnt from many Anime that when someone is feeling down, just say "You are you" and they will instantly feel better. Works almost every time, so much so I think it is some sort of spell native to the Japanese archipelago.

Probably not specific to a certain show, but comes to mind first.
Pokemon: Safer to give children dangerous creatures that can cause more damage to society than a gun.
Sailor Moon: Just change your outfit and people are oblivious to who you are.
DBZ: Ditching a good plan to win against foes who want to blow up the world just to "see how powerful they are" to better yourself.
Princess Tutu: Plot twists can come in the oddest of ways.
Grenadier: Cleavage is just deep pockets for extra stuff.

This isn't unique to anime. Just read just about any play from Shakespeare.

Or Superman. Use hair gel, take off your glasses, put on lycra/spandex/whatever and stand with a better posture and voila, instant and foolproof disguise.

Code Geass: If your voice is preposterous enough, people will line up to follow you to their death.
Rurouni Kenshin (and others): A true swordsman is capable of speaking so incredibly fast that he can deliver an entire exposition about swordplay in the time it takes to swing a sword.

[insert random harem series name here]: While normal guys have to struggle to get girls' attention, a total loser only has to be a little nice to have sexy girls jumping all over him.

Please use spoiler tags for that one!
Also for Fate/Stay Night: I learned people die when they are killed.

Baccano: The best thieves are the stupidest ones.
Durarara: There is no such thing as a healthy, normal relationship. Also, all high school students are either gang members or supernatural something-or-others. Finally, don't mess with dudes dressed like bartenders.
Madoka Magica: Angsty prepubescent girls are literally the most powerful force in the universe.
Code Geass: The hammier strategist is the smarter strategist.
To Aru Majutsu No Index: Loli nuns are everywhere. And if you're the male MC, you WILL walk in on them naked.
Ga-Rei: Zero: All mundane items can make highly effective weapons. That includes wheelchairs.
And a general rule that all series seem to follow: A slap to the face is ALWAYS the best way to snap someone out of their funk.

The Wallflower: A used teabag makes a dandy scouring pad when washing up.
(Maybe less dramatic than some of the lessons listed above, but more practicable!)

A couple more:
Shuffle!: When all else fails, threaten to kill yourself.
Please Twins: Eye-color can be used to convincingly determine relatives.
Yosuga no Sora: Incest is indeed best.
