I'm no shrinking violet

I don't remember why I said "I'm no shrinking violet" to a friend, but she was not familiar with that phrase.  So I decided then and there to write about it here on my blog.  What's that phrase mean?  It's "a person who is very shy or modest and does not like to attract attention."  Here's an example:  "She's no shrinking violet when it comes to expressing her views."
