"At three o'clock, implore My mercy, especially for sinners; and, if only for a brief moment, immerse yourself in My Passion, particularly in My abandonment at the moment of agony. This is the hour of great mercy... In this hour I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of Me in virtue of My Passion." -- Diary, 1320

"As often as you hear the clock strike the third hour, immerse yourself completely in My mercy, adoring and glorifying it. Invoke its omnipotence for the whole world, and particularly for poor sinners, for at that moment mercy was opened wide for every soul. In this hour you can obtain everything for yourself and for others for the asking; it was the hour of grace for the whole world –– mercy triumphed over justice." -- Diary, 1572

"Try your best to make the Stations of the Cross in this hour, provided that your duties permit it. If you are not able to make the Stations of the Cross, then at least step into the Chapel for a moment and adore, in the Most Blessed Sacrament, My Heart, which is full of mercy. Should you be unable to step into the Chapel, immerse yourself in prayer there where you happen to be, if only for a very brief instant. -- Diary, 1572

When once I asked the Lord Jesus how He could tolerate so many sins and crimes and not punish sinners, the Lord answered me, "I have eternity for punishing, and so I am prolonging the time of mercy for the sake of sinners. But woe to them if they do not recognize this time of My visitation." -- Diary, 1159-1160

"Tell sinners that no one shall escape My Hand; if they run away from My Merciful Heart, they will fall into My Just Hands. Tell sinners that I am always waiting for them, that I listen to the beating of their heart... when will it beat for Me? Write, that I am speaking to them through their remorse of conscience, through their failures and sufferings, through thunderstorms, through the voice of the Church. And if they bring all My graces to naught, I begin to be angry with them, leaving them alone and giving them what they want." -- Diary, 1728
