The earliest instance of this phrase that I can remember is in Shakespeare's Macbeth. Nowadays, you'll see the word 'justified' very often in conjunction and it is a very hefty and dramatic thing to say, namely, "do the ends justify the means?" The "means" are the tools used to reach the goal, or "end."

The means is the tool you use, and the end is the goal you want to achieve.

Why are you studying hard? Its a means to an end!
