question
adjectives nouns particle-な
Position of な in this sentence
**静か** is a **な** adjective, where as **人** is the noun. When you use **な**
adjective before a noun, the **な** will be attached with the adjective, not
with the noun.

So, **静かな人** is correct, **人な静か** wrong.

Let's take another example, **[好き]{すき}→Like**

Ex:1

> [私]{わたし}の[好き]{すき}な[花]{はな}はばらです。  
>  →My favorite flower is rose.

Ex:2

> [私]{わたし}はばらが[好き]{すき}です。  
>  →I like rose.

Though you are expressing the same feeling with the above two example, but the
use of **な** adjective is different. When **な** adjective is used in the end
of a sentence, **な** is simply omitted.
