    It's got a lot to do with the phrase first used by Shakespeare- "Vanished into air". He used that phrase to depict something that suddenly disappeared into, well, nothing. Therefore, the phrase "out of thin air' alludes to something that has appeared out of nothing, suddenly. As for 'thin' - who knows?!

     

    So in this quote it is saying that confidence in yourself seems to come out of nothing/nowhere. Hope that helps!

    Teenager and Adults

    Mum : Hey sweetie what have you done?
    Alison : I have learned my vocabulary, Mum. One question, can I go shopping with my friends and then to the
    cinema?
    Mum : Sure, but you will have to be here at 10 pm.
    Alison : But Mum...
    Mum : Don`t protest Alison!
    Alison : Ok, fine. Can you give me some money please?
    Mum : I gave you already money Ali! I already gave you money, Ali!
    Alison : Oh well....but I haven`t got the money now. (OR.. I haven't any money now)
    Mum : That is your problem, not mine.
    Alison : This is not fair! You can give me a little bit. Please Mum.
    Mum : Okay but this is the last time Alison.
    Alison : Thank you mum and can I also come home at 11 pm?
    Mum : No! That is too late. You have school tomorrow!
    Alison : What did you do when I will came home after 10 pm? This doesn't make sense. Do you mean 'What would you do if I came home after 10?' 
    Mum : You will have to face the consequences Alison!
    Alison : Okay okay. you won. I will be back by 10 pm.
    Mum : Great. Have fun, Ali.
    Alison : Thanks Mum. Bye.
    Mum : Bye Alison.

     

    Nice try! Hope that helps :)
