How do I disconnect the clutch from the vehicle

I am currently replacing my blown engine with the exact same one. Both axles have been removed as well as almost everything connected to the engine/car. The final thing I need to do before I start removing the engine is disconnect the clutch(I assume from the pedal?) I am taking out both engine and transmission so I can remove just the sole engine without it being a pain in the...well you know. the transmission is toast, and the clutch I figure I shouldn't tamper with since its only the engine I need. Your help in the matter would be very appreciated, thanks!
