Yup, the Doctor's arrogant as all hell - always has been - it's usually justified, though, because basically he does know what he's doing. Yes, sometimes the burden is so heavy it crushes him and even his friends. But that's how it is.

And he does wonder and has wondered who will succeed him. He's tried several times to turn his companions into "little Doctors" - Ace, Leela, even Captain Jack to a certain extent, plus there are book companions he tried it with - but it never quite works. Because they're human, they don't have the Time Lord training or upbringing, and now they never can (years and years of academic schooling? Is a bit beyond what the Doctor can provide in the TARDIS...).

The Doctor may or may not have the right. But there's no one else. There just isn't. So what other choice has he got?

(Does that sound flame-y? It's not meant to, but it's late and I'm hot...)
