In the middlegame the pieces seldom exert their full powers, since they are obstructed by other pieces, both hostile and friendly. The aim must always be to give every piece its greatest possible radius of action; and this is really the hub on which turns all positional and combinational play.
From The Middlegame, Book One: Static Features by Dr. Max Euwe and Hans Kramer
