Ok I know that 10 quality backlinks (related links, high pagerank) are better than 1000 free directories (non-related).

But, If I had 1000 free directories and 10 quality backlinks, would those 1000 free directory backlinks weigh me down or help?
The 1000 backlinks, achieved to quickly, with the same anchor text, might get you penalized in Google. They might appear unnatural. But more likely they would just be completly ignored. You will just be wasting your time.
