New Testament in Greek

Arnaldo Momigliano (1908-1987), "Pagan and Christian Historiography in the Fourth Century A.D.," Essays in Ancient and Modern Historiography (Middletown: Wesleyan University Press, 1977), pp. 107-126 (at 109):
We all know the story of the man who went into a London bookshop and asked for a New Testament in Greek. The assistant retired to a back room and after ten minutes came back with a grave look: 'Strange, sir, but Greek seems to be the only language into which the New Testament has not yet been translated.'
