The quote "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few" comes from the classic Charles Dickens' novel "A Tale of Two Cities."
The popular reference is from the movie "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan." Early in the film, Spock gives a copy of the book to Kirk for his birthday. Kirk opens it and recites the beginning of its famous opening line "It WAS the best of times, it was the worst of times..." The quote is spoken near the end of the film, when Spock (who has sacrificed his life to save the crew -- an underlying theme in Tales) begins to recite the line, which Kirk helps him finish.
After Spocks' funeral, Kirk recites (slightly misquoting) the final words of the novel: "It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest(ing place) that I go to than I have ever known."
