Cut them off, likely the are as old as the heater and need replacing anyway.
But there is a tool made to help remove hoses, think an ice pick bent in the shape of a J, it slips under hose and lets you work it around and pull.

It's called a hose removal tool and most any auto parts store will have them. Probably under ten dollars. Look on youtube to see how they are used,
