Comment from Understand the Times:
 
The head of the Roman Catholic Church should read the Bible. If he does he will see that his statements are not only unbiblical, they are blasphemous.
 
March 24 - You Always Have a Mother - John Paul II on Love for Mary

Article: Roman Catholic Church And The Last Days
  

Every good son delights to see his mother praised.  This is even more so the case with the Lord Jesus and his Blessed Mother, Mary.  It warms Jesus' heart to see Christians showering praises upon his mother. 

And thus, love for Mary never conflicts with love for Christ.  John Paul II always considered such a suggestion to be impossible.  No one can love Mary to the exclusion of Jesus because Mary always leads a devout soul to closer intimacy with her Son.

In the case of John Paul II, a tender relationship with Mary provided him with a maternal influence throughout life. He had lost his own mother, Emilia, before he was nine.  In subsequent years, it was his heavenly mother Mary who smoothed off his rough edges, who bound up his wounded heart, who stood with him at the foot of the cross and taught him to repay hatred with love.

Thus John Paul II spoke to young people about Mary in his 2003 world youth day message: 

Jesus gives his Mother to you so that she will comfort you with her tenderness. She will discharge her ministry as a mother and train you and mold you until Christ is fully formed in you. This is why I now wish to repeat the motto of my episcopal and pontifical service: "Totus tuus."(completely yours) Throughout my life I have experienced the loving and forceful presence of the Mother of Our Lord. Mary accompanies me every day in the fulfillment of my mission as successor of Peter. Mary is the Mother of divine grace, because she is the Mother of the Author of grace. Entrust yourselves to her with complete confidence! (John Paul II, "Message of the Holy Father John Paul II for the 18th World Youth Day," March 8, 2003, 3-4.)
