You have to get a feel for the 'sweet spot', no too much or the engine stalls, not too little or you won't move the car.
Think of 2 pies, made of thick leather, facing each other. One of them is spinning very quickly, the other pie is sitting still because you are holding it back by holding down the clutch. As you let the clutch up, that pie draws closer to the other one. As it get closer, there is more friction, up to the point where it catches and there is no more sliding. If you did it right, you are either rolling or you just stalled the engine.
You can put the shifter in neutral and let the them touch and spin together but in order to change gears you have to disengage them with the clutch. Of course you do not want to let the pies scrape up against each other for long periods of time or you'll start smelling the clutch burn.
