Answer 1

in Rudyard Kipling's poem 'IF', the poet personifies Triumph and Disaster and calls them 'two impostors' (pretenders/cheaters/deceivers). ... That is why the poet calls triumph and disaster 'two impostors'. Therefore, he asks us to treat those deceivers similarly, with a smiling face.

Answer 2

Answer:

If you can think and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with triumph and disaster; And treat those two impostors just the same; If you can force your heart, and nerve, and sinew
