/Sounds like "kwah" (as in "quack") + "DRAH" (as in "draft") + "doh" (as in "door")/
A close-minded, inflexible person who refuses to consider new ideas or different ways of doing things. The cuadrado always has the same answer: no. In Mexico and Colombia the term describes someone stuck in their own rigid worldview with no room for creativity or compromise.
“He is very rigid in business, he won't accept any proposal that differs from what he already knows.”
“Don't be so closed-minded, try something new once in a while.”

Alzársele el santo
To suddenly snap and lose all self-control, acting on impulse without thinking about the consequences. A vivid Mexican expression: your saintly patron "lifts off" and takes your good judgment with them. When someone goes there, the best move is to step back and wait it out.
