Ray: I think some of the men are a bit afraid of you.Â
Sandor: I’m used to it. Â
Ray: When I found you, I thought you’d been dead for days. I was gonna give you a proper burial and then you coughed.  I reckoned you were gonna die by the time I loaded you on the wagon, but you didn’t. Now, I reckoned you’d die a dozen more times over the next few days, but you didn’t. What kept you going?
Sandor: Hate.
Ray: No, there’s a reason you’re still here.Â
Sandor: Aye, there’s a reason. I’m a big fucker and I’m tough to kill. Ray: No, a reason. Gods aren’t done with you yet. What matters, I believe, is that there’s something greater than us. And whatever it is, it’s got plans for Sandor Clegane.
Sandor: You didn’t know me back in my time. You don’t know the things I’ve done. If the gods are real…why haven’t they punished me?Â
This illustration is meant to depict Sandor’s encounter with Gregor’s men where he learns of and reacts to Sansa’s marriage to the Imp, as described in ASOS:
The Hound poured a cup of wine for Arya and another for himself, and drank it down while staring at the hearthfire. “The little bird flew away, did she? Well, bloody good for her. She shit on the Imp’s head and flew off.”
