To resign is to give up ,

it marks a formal and deliberate surrender .
To relinquish is less formal ,
but always implies abandonment and that the thing given up has been long an object of pursuit ,
and ,
usually ,
that it has been prized and desired .
We resign what we once held or considered as our own ,
as an office ,
employment ,
etc .
We speak of relinquishing a claim ,
of relinquishing some advantage we had sought or enjoyed ,
of relinquishing seme right ,
privilege ,
etc . "
Men are weary with the toil which they bear ,
but can not find it in their hearts to relinquish it ." --
