I personally admire the story; The Quiet Man, because of the plot. It is a very good story and I can relate to Shawn, the main character. The conflict in this story is person versus person (Shawn Kelvin versus Big Liam O'Grady). I liked this story for two reasons: The first one being: the way Maurice Walsh (the author) foreshadows the plot. His style of writing makes the readers read every page with anticipation.
Throughout the story Shawn faces many challenges, most of them coming from O'Grady. O'Grady has humiliated Shawn in public on a number of occasions. I remember a part in the story where Shawn went over to O'Grady to collect the dowry that O'Grady had promised him. Shawn is not a greedy man unlike O'Grady who is selfish and self-centered. Ellen (Shawn's wife) has always pressured Shawn to collect the dowry, but every time Shawn faces O'Grady, O'Grady never takes him seriously.
Shawn on the other hand does not wish to face O'Grady, knowing that one day it would lead to a brawl.
A handful of people in town believe that Kelvin is a coward and that he was afraid to fight Big Liam. But the truth is Shawn does not believe that violence would solve the problems between him and Big Liam. That is why I like Shawn. He believes that Big Liam's money is worth nothing compared to his beautiful wife Ellen.
The narrator uses an agreeable tone towards Shawn and it clearly reinforces my answer, because Shawn is an agreeable character.

Quiet monastery man
The is an article, tall is an adjective, man is a noun, was is a verb (linking), veryis an adverb, and quiet is an adjective.
It is not a noun at all; you cannot have or be a 'quiet'. It is an adjective; you can get a 'quiet' something.
Shawn Kelvin is the main character in The Quiet Man (a short story) by Maurice Walsh. He is the quiet man because he keeps his (personal) thoughts and feelings to himself. For Example: when Big Liam O'Grady picked on Shawn, he didn't do anything to stop O'Grady from doing it. He was patient with the bully and stayed away, not because he was a chicken, but because he was smart and very knowledgeable with his life. I recommend reading the story because it has taught me some things...maybe it can teach you something good too!
